Question

Gym A charges a $25 membership fee and a $25 monthly fee. Gym B charges a $55 membership fee and a $10 monthly fee. After how many months will the total amount of money paid to both yoga clubs be the same? What will the amount be?

Answer 1

Answer: 75

solve:

For gym A

total cost= membership fee+monthly fee

membership fee=25

monthly fee=25

cost of x month=25x

total cost=25+25x

for gym B

membership fee=10

total cost=55+10x

now total cost are same

25+25x=55+10x

15x=30

x=30/15

x=2.

2 months

and amount =25+25*2=75

Answer 2

2 months, they will have paid 75 dollars

Explanation:

Gym A

25+ 25m where m is the number of months

Gym B

55 + 10m

Set them equal

25+25m = 55+10m

Subtract 10m from each side

25+25m-10m = 55+10m-10m

25+15m = 55

Subtract 25 from each side

25+15m-25 = 55-25

15m = 30

Divide by 15

15m/15 = 30/15

m=2

After 2 months

25+25(2) = 25+50 = 75

The cost is 75 dollars
