<h3>Answer: 32</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

Let

x = number of visits

y = total cost in dollars

The membership costs $18 no matter how many visits you do. If you make x visits, at $1 each, then it costs an additional 1*x = 1x = x dollars. This is added on top of the base membership fee. In total, we know that y = 18+x = x+18

We want the total y to be at most $50. Therefore y \le 50. The highest y can get is 50.

Let's replace y with x+18 and isolate x

y \le 50

x+18 \le 50 y is replaced with x+18

x+18-18 \le 50-18 subtract 18 from both sides

x \le 32

This tells us that we can make at most 32 visits. In other words, the maximum number of visits is 32.

In a city, 60% of the residents live in houses and 40% of the residents live in apartments. Of the people who live in houses, 20
Step2247 [10]
75%; so if we say there are 100 people in this city that means 60 of them live in houses and 40 of them live in apartments. Of the 60 living in houses 20% of them (12% of total population; 60 x .20) own their own business and those in apartments (40) 10% of them (4% of total pop.; 40 x .10) have their own business. In total 16 of the 100 people have businesses and 12 of those people live in houses so 12/16 equals .75. We multiply this by 100 to get the percent so there’s 75% that a person who owns a business in this city will also live in a house.
