Question

Membership at the Lose for Less Gym requires new members to pay an

enrollment fee of $79. 95 and purchase a key card for $19. 95, in addition to

the regular monthly fee of $24. 95.

Write an equation that represents the cost C for membership for m months.

What is the cost of a 2-year membership?

$1,157. 55

$698. 70

$678. 75

$2,422. 55

Answer 1

I believe C is the monthly fee therefore the equation would be 24.95(C)+99.9.
Though the reason I’d say the equation would be 24.95+99.90 is from the formula mx+b. When looking at this equation they’re constantly changing so it would be mx while they’re not charging monthly for the key and enrollment fee therefore that would be b in that formula. $99.90 is the Y coordinate and you add $24.95 every month.

The charge for a 2 year membership it would be 24.95 (24 months)=$598.80 then add $99.90 and that equals $698.70.
