Answer:

a.) 10 months

b.) Kool Karate

c.) Karate Klub

Explanation:

Karate Klub : y=25x+200

Kool Karate : y=35x+100

A.) First, set the equations equal to each other then solve for x.
A.) 25x+200=35x+100\\\\

take away 100 from both sides


25x+100=35x

take away 25x from both sides


100=10x

divide 10 from both sides so x can be by itself and equal to 1


10=x

This means that at 10 months, the cost is the same for both.

B.) Substitute 6 for x in both equations

Karate Klub :
y=25(6)+200\\y=350

Kool Karate :
y=35(6)+100\\y=310

The cost for Kool Karate is cheaper, so that is what he should join.

C.) Substitute 12 for x in both equations.

x=12 because there are 12 months in a year.

Karate Klub:
y= 25(12)+200\\y=500

Kool Karate:
y=35(12)+100\\y=520

The cost for Karate Klub is cheaper, so that is what he should join.
