Which inequality represents the following problem:
The Rug store installs carpet for $80 plus $9.50 per square yard of carpet. The Magic Carpet charges $120 for instillation and $7.50 per square yard of carpet. Find the number of square yards of carpet for The Rug Store charges more than The Magic Carpet.

• 80+9.50x > 120+7.50x

• 80+9.50x < 120+7.50x

• 80x+9.50 > 120x+7.50

• 80x+9.50 < 120x+7.50

The Frederick County Fair costs $15.00 to get in and $2.50 per ride, while the Montgomery County Fair costs $10.00 to get in and $3.00 per ride. Which equations could be used to determine how many rides you would need to go on for both fairs to be of equal value? 

• 15x + 2.5 = 10x + 3

• 15 - 2.5x = 10 - 3x

• 15 + 2.5x = 10 + 3x

• 15 - 10 = 2.5x + 3x

At Gamestop you can buy a Xbox One for $150.00 and each game to go with it would cost $24.00. Or, you can buy a Playstation 4 for $180.00 and each game for $20.00. Write an equation to determine how many games would need to be purchased for the cost to be equal?

• 150x + 24 = 180 + 20x

• 150 + 24x = 180 + 20x

• 180 - 150 = 24 x + 20x

• 150 - 24x = 180 - 20x
