Question

Drago joined a gym that has a sign-up fee of $25 and charges $11 every month. Which expression represents the total cost of a gym membership after m months? 25m + 11 11m 25 + 11m 25m

Answer 1

25 + 11m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Sign up fee = $25

Charge per month = $11

Number of months = m

Unknown:

Total cost of gym membership after m months = ?

To solve this problem, we need to follow this world problem step by step;

• The sign up fee is $25 and it is a one time charge
• Drago pays $11 every month and number of months is "m";

Charge for m-months = $11 x m = $11m

• Now, total charge is:

Total charge = Sign up fee + charge for m-months

= $25 + $11m

Therefore, the total cost of gym membership after m-months is 25 + 11m
