The entry fee is a fixed cost, so it does not depend on the number of rides or shows. The total cost of the rides will be $1.50 times the number of rides r, and the total cost of the shows will be $2.25 times the number of shows s. Therefore, the total cost can be calculated by adding the entry fee, the cost of the rides, and the cost of the shows:
Total cost = Entry fee + Cost of rides + Cost of shows
Total cost = $25 + $1.50r + $2.25s
The algebraic expression that represents the total cost is $25 + $1.50r + $2.25s.
