Answer:

10 tickets

Explanation:

The difference in club fee is $30. The difference in ticket price is $3. It takes 30/3 = 10 tickets to make up the difference in club fee.

__

The cost of 10 tickets for "a movie club" is $30 + 10×8 = $110.

The cost of 10 tickets for "another club" is $11×10 = $110.

The two clubs have equal costs for purchase of 10 tickets.
