Q. Samir and Ben are planning a day trip with their friends. Samir wants to go to a waterpark that charges $40 per person for admission, plus $5 per person for tube rentals. Ben wants to go to a rock-climbing gym that charges $150 to rent the facility, plus an additional $20 per person.Which equation can you use to find p, the number of people who would need to go on the trip for the two options to cost the same?Choices:(A) 40p+5=150+20p(B) 40p+5p=150+20pHow many people would need to go on the trip for the two options to cost the same?___ people
Choose equation: Choose the correct equation to represent the problem. Compare the total costs for both options.Waterpark: 40p+5p (Incorrectly added the per person cost instead of tube rental cost)Rock-climbing gym: 150+20pCorrect equation should be: 40p+5=150+20p
