Answer:

You use PEMDAS.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you dont know what that is, its the process used for long multistep equations like that : Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, then Subtraction. You solve all of those in order (if they are included in the problem). So for this you would solve one side of the inequality sign first using this order, then the other side and BAM! you've solved this problem.

McKenna pays $16 per month for a gym membership. In addition, she pays $2 per Pilates class.

True [87]

$16 per month can be changed to 16m where m represents months.

The $2 per Pilates class can be 2p where p represents Pilates classes.

An equation of y = 16m + 2p can be set up, where y represents how much McKenna is charged total for gym membership ($52)

52 = 16m + 2p

We know that McKenna attended 12 Pilates classes, and we also know that McKenna attended 1 month, so we plug this in:

52 = 16(1) + 2(12) (simplify)

52 = 16 + 24 (add 24)

52 = 40

Since this is not equal, $52 is not the correct amount to be charged.
