Question

I NEED THIS NOW PLEASE

Casey wants to buy a gym membership. One gym has a $120 joining fee and costs $40 per month. Another gym has no joining fee and costs $70 per month. When would Casey pay the same amount to be a member of either gym? How much would he pay?

Answer 1

120+40x=70x
Subtract 40 from 70 and you get 30
Then you divide 30 into 120 and you get 4.
So in 4 months he will pay the same.
Once you get that.
You plug 4 into. 120+40(4)=280
As well as the other gym option. Which is the 70 per month. So 70(4)=280.
So in the end he will end up paying the same amount for both gyms. So either one he chooses will be a win win. Even with the 120 joining fee. I do hope this help.
