Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ride ticket= $2

Admission= $7

Amount= $25

We want to find the greatest number of rides

let the number of rides be x

The expression to describe how she spends the amount is given as

y=7+2x

for y= 25, let us find x

25= 7+2x

25-7= 2x

18=3x

x= 18/2

x= 9

Hence the number of rides is 9
