A bus ride costs $1.50. A 30-day bus pass costs $36. Write an inequality to represent the number x of bus rides you would need to take for the bus pass to be a better deal.
let X equal the number of days it takes to cost more let M equal the price of the bus ride $36< $1.50(X) Divide $36 by $1.5 to see how many days it would take to be equal, then add 1.
