Question

Angela pays $393 in advance on her account at the athletic club. Each time she uses the club, $5 is deducted from the account. Write and equation in her account after x visits to the club. Find the value remaining in the account after 18 visits.

Answer 1

y= 393- 5(x) after 18 visits value remaining in her account is 303$

Explanation:

let the amount in her account be y $

y= 393- 5(x) where x is the number of visits.

after 18 visits y= 393- 5(18)= 393-90= $303

Answer 2

In this question, we're trying to find how much money she'll have after 18 visits.

We know that she already paid $393 dollars

We also know that there is a $5 deduction from the account for every time she uses the club

x = visits to the club

y = value remaining in the account

Our equation would be:

y = -5x +393

Since we know that she visited the club 18 times, plug 18 into x and solve:

y = -5(18)

y = -90 + 393

y = 303

This means that after 18 visits, there will be a remaining balance of $303

Answer:

$303
