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 inequality could be used to determine how many rides you would need to go on before it would become cheaper to go to the Frederick fair?

• 15x + 2.5 < 10x + 3

• 15 + 2.5x > 10 + 3x

• 15 + 2.5x < 10 + 3x

• 15 - 10 ≥ 2.5x + 3x
