There in the question Mallory's ride is undefined,so we take it as Water slide ride.

Ferris wheel ride cost

And Water slides cost

Step-by-step explanation:

Now lets assign for Ferris wheel ride and for water slide.

According to the question.

Kyra spent for rides on Ferris wheel and on Water slide, so

Similarly for Mallory we have

We have two equations and two unknowns.

Firstly we will find the value of Water slide cost that is then,

Dividing both sides with

The cost of each Water slide ride

Now

Plugging the value of   in .

Subtracting both sides

So the cost of Ferris wheel

The cost of Ferris wheel ride and the cost of Water slides

the answer to this question is 3/19

step-by-step explanation:

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
