Answer:

Part A:

1.40x+8.00=C

Part B:

1.40x+8=26

        -8   -8

1.40x=18

/1.40    /1.40

x=11 total rides

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression to represent this would be 1.40x+8.00=C (C is total cost).

If you had $26.00 you would first spend $8.00 on the entry leaving you with $18.00. Then you would divide the $18 by $1.40 for each ride to get 12.8... It doesn't make sense to go on a fraction of a ride so you just round down to 11 rides
