a boy wants to ride a swing. the fare of first five rides is rupees 50 and for subsequent ride, it is rupees 7 per ride. if the boy completes x rides of the swing and pays rupees y, then a linear equation for this information can be written as​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Boys completes x rides , so

x = 5+(x-5)

He pays ₹y for x rides.

for First 5 rides the cost is 50₹. and for next per rides it is 7₹

so we can say that,

y=50+7(x-5)

y=50+7x-35

y=7x+15

7x+15-y=0
