Answer:
6 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of times you visit the pool = x
At a local swim club you can purchase an annual membership for 24 dollars which will allow you 1 dollar admission to the pool all summer.
= $24 + $1× x
= 24 + x
If you do not purchase the membership the pool admission is 5 dollars.
= 5 × x
= 5x
Hence:
24 + x = 5x
Collect like terms
24 = 5x - x
4x = 24
x = 24/4
x = 6 times
The number of times you must visit the pool with a membership that would equal the cost of paying full price is 6 times.
Since it is super-urgent, it is probably a test or quiz. I should not have answered the question. I will help by giving you an example. You will need to work it out using a calculator. This is the best I can do.
Well, you just divide 7056 by a guess number x.
Take the average of x and the quotient (result of division) and repeat again.
Example:
Find square-root of 700, with an initial guess of x=27.
The quotient is 25.92592592592592
Taking average of 25.92592592592592 and 27 gives 26.46296296296296.
Using new guess x=26.46296296296296 and repeat the same process, we get 26.45751367182438
Using the new guess x=26.45751367182438 and repeat the same process, we get 26.45751311064591 which is accurate to 13 places after the decimal.
If it is not clear, try finding square-root of 625 and the final answer should be 25 (exactly) after three or four repetitions.
