Question

At one gym, there is a $12 start-up fee, and after that each month, m, at the gym costs $20. At another gym, each month at the gym costs $22. After how many months will the cost of both gyms be the same?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Gym1

12 + 20m

Gym2

22m

Set them equal

12 +20m = 22m

Subtract 20 m from each side

12 +20m-20m = 22m-20m

12 = 2m

Divide by 2

12/2 = 2m/2

6 =m
