Question

Casey wants to buy a gym membership. One gym has a $176 joining fee and costs $29 per month. Another gym has no joining fee and costs $51 per month.

Part 1 out of 2
In how many months will both gym memberships cost the same? What will that cost be?

Answer 1

8 months for cost to be same, cost will be $408

Explanation:

x = months

176 + 29x = 0 + 51x

176 = 22x

8 = x

176 + (29*8) = 408

0 + (51*8) = 408
