Answer: The solution is (4,99) which means for in 4 months the total cost of each health club will be the same.

Explanation:

Club A can be represented by the equation y = 23x + 7 where x is the number of months and y is the cost.

Club B can be represented by the equation y = 16x + 35 where x is the number of months and y is the cost.

23x + 7 = 16x + 35 set the equation equal each other to solve for x

-7 -7

23x = 16x + 28

-16x -16x

7x= 28

x= 4 now we know the value of x is 4 so we will put it into the equation and solve for y

y= 16(4) + 35

y= 99
