Explanation:

Given : Ed Parker joined a health club. There was a $49 registration fee, and a $17.50 monthly fee.

also, Ed visits the club 2 times a week for a year.

We have to calculate the cost of each workout.

We first find the cost that Ed Parker paid to joined a health club

Since, There was a $49 registration fee, and a $17.50 monthly fee.

For a year ,

We have 12 months

So total cost = 49 + 17.50(12) = $ 259

1 year has 52 weeks.

Thus, the weekly fee is
`(259)/(52)=4.98`

Since, he visits the club 2 times a week

Thus, each workout cost him
`(4.98)/(2)=2.49`

Thus, the cost of each workout is $ 2.49
