Question

A gym is selling monthly memberships for $35 each and reusable water bottles for $9 each. The gym

needs to make $1188 by the end of the month.
Enter a linear equation that describes the problem.
An equation for the amount of money made by the gym is = $1188, where m is the number of
monthly memberships sold, and w is the number of reusable water bottles sold.

Answer 1

1188=35m+9w

Explanation:

Answer 2

x = gym memberships, and y = bottles of water

30x + 7y = 1050.....when x = 28

30(28) + 7y = 1050

840 + 7y = 1050

7y = 1050 - 840

7y = 210

y = 210/7

y = 30....so he would have to sell 30 water bottles
