a) calculate the amount of money you will have to spend in total from each ride and then compare it to the $35 for the pass. Then write your inequality using the answers you get.
b) figure out how much money it will cost for 45 rides in total if each ride is 1.25. The calculation is really easy. Then compare your answer to the pass which is 35$, whichever is less is the option you should go with because it will be cheaper.

a. 1.25x > 35.
X > 28 rides.
b. Yes. If the student rides the subway more than 28 times per month, the monthly pass will be the best deal.
