Question

7. Nick’s youth group has 20 regular students that attend weekly get togethers. They saved up enough money for each person to go swimming 10 times each with the daily pay plan. After they saved that amount, they found out they can use the early pay plan and save money. They plan to donate their savings to the church since it’s in need of a new sound system. How much money will they be able to donate with the savings from all 20 youth? (Please show all your work for full credit)

Answer 1

$375 saved or roughly 33%.

Explanation:

With daily plan;

(15)4.00 = 60.00

(25)60.00 = $1,500.00

If the youth group saved up enough for each of them to swim 15 times and 25 students are attending, they originally had $1,500.00 saved for the trip.

With early pay;

(25)45.00 = $1,125.00

1,500.00 - 1,125.00 = $375 saved or roughly 33%.

Answer 2

If each youth saves $10 daily, their weekly savings would be $1400. So they donated $1400 to the church.

Explanation:

Let the daily pay plan for each youth be $y

Daily pay plan for 20 youth = $20y

Weekly pay plan = 7×20y = $140y

Assuming each youth saves $10 daily

Daily savings for 20 youth = 20×$10= $200

Weekly savings for 20 youth = 7×$200= $1400

If they used the early pay plan ($140y) to go swimming, they saved $1400 which they donated to the church.
