Membership to a music club costs $120. Members pay $35 per music lesson and nonmembers pay $55 per music lesson. How many music lessons would have to be taken for the cost to be the same for members and nonmembers?

6 music lessons; okay so you would set up an equation such as 120+35x=55x and then you’d subtract 35x from both sides. 120=20x x=6 and then you can check 6 by plugging it into the original equation and seeing the values equal
