Question

You are choosing between two health clubs. Club A offers membership for a fee of $28 plus a monthly fee of $24. Club B offers membership for a fee of $35 plus a monthly fee of $17. After how many months will the total cost of health club A be at least the total cost for Club B

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost will be the same after 1 month

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: set up the equation

club A= 28x+24  club B= 35x+17

club A=club B: 28x+24=35x+17

Step 2: Get rid of the smallest X

28x+24=35x+17

-28         -28

24=7x+17

Step 3: Get rid of the constant next to the variable to isolate the variable

24=7x+17

-17       -17  

7=7x

Step 4: Inverse operation to remove variable

7÷7x=7x÷7x

1=1

I hope this helped, im not too good at explaining but im positive the solution is correct.
