A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs $67. A season ski pass costs $350. The skier would have to rent skis with either pass for $25 per day.

How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than daily passes?

The equation for the season pass would look like: y=25x+350 Daliy pass: y=67x+25x or y=92x x is the amount of days and y is the total cost. 92x=25x+350 This equation will be how many days the cost will be equal 67x=350 x=5.223 The skier would have to go up 6 days to start saving from the season pass

To justify purchasing a** season pass** over daily passes, given the costs, the skier would need to go skiing for 4 days or more. ;

The skier must ski at least 6 days for the season ski pass to be less expensive than purchasing daily passes. The daily pass, including ski rental costs, totals $92 per day. The season pass costs $350 plus $25 rental per day, becoming cheaper after skiing 6 days.
