Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

21.00 [tex]\geq[/tex]  5.50 + 0.99x

Solve for x:

First subtract 5.50 from both sides:

15.50 [tex]\geq[/tex] 0.99x

Divide both sides by 0.99:

15.6 [tex]\geq[/tex] x

Since you can't ride 0.6 of a ride the max number rides that Deja can ride is 15
