The Video Club charges a $100 membership fee and then charges $5 per movie. The Movie Market has a $25 membership fee and then charges $10 per movie. When will both clubs have the same cost? What is the cost?

Answer:

At 15 movies, both will cost $175

Explanation:

Set it up algebraicly. Let x be the number of movies

100 + 5x = 25 + 10x

75 + 5x = 10x

75 = 5x

x = 15

Lets substitute x into one equation

100 + 5(15)

100+75

175
