Question

In order to join a dancing club, there is a $30 startup fee and a $4 monthly fee. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that models this situation. After how many months will the total cost be $58?

Answer 1

7 months

Explanation:

y =4x + 30

58 = 4x + 30

28 = 4x

x = 7

it will take 7 months.

Answer 2

y=4x+30

In 7 months, the total cost will be $58.

Explanation:

Since the monthly fee is 4, it's going to be the constant, or the slope. And 30 is a one time fee, so it's the y-intercept.

How many Months?

58-30=28

28/4=7

So in 7 months.
