When two Algebra students go to the fair for the night.

Want to go to the state fair with me, Cris?
State FairThis weekend only!Rides: $6Games: $2
I'd love to, Blake! Sounds like a good time. I've got $30 I can spend.
Is she feeling okay?
I wonder how you would write the expression for riding r rides and playing g games?
Are you seriously thinking about what we learned in Algebra when we aren't in school anymore?
Man, why do I always do this? I really like him...don't mess this up, Blake.
Well...ya...It made me think about how we learned the standard form of an equation today. It's the perfect scenario!
Challenge Accepted!I like a smart girl.It is $6 times the number of rides plus $2 times the number of games. That would give us an expression of 6r + 2g.
Thank goodness!
Okay. If we know that the standard form of an equation is represented by Ax + By = C, and we have $30 to spend, what equation would represent our trip to the fair?P.S. Good thing it was free to enter!

Easy! 6r + 2g = 30$6 per ride plus $2 per game is $30. Do you think the ordered pair (1,12) fits on the line of this equation?
Sigh...I'm in love!!
Yep! Substitute the value into your equation for the correct variables and you'll see that 6(1) + 2(12) = 6 + 24 = $30. It means we get to go on 1 ride and play 12 games. This sounds like a fantastic night!
Ya, why not? I'd rather spend the evening enjoying it with you then working on math homework anyway.
I think I found the one for me!
I'm not doing my homework tonight. I'm just going to tell Mrs. Nelson about our conversation. Think that will fly?
