Answer 1

Question:

Veronica is choosing between two health clubs. after how many months will the total cost for each health club be the​ same? yoga studio a: membership: $24.00 monthly fee: 21.50. yoga studio b: membership: $41.00 monthly fee: $17.25

Answer:

It takes 4 years for the total cost of each club to become equal

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

For yoga studio A:

membership: $24.00

monthly fee: 21.50.

For yoga studio B:

membership: $41.00

monthly fee: $17.25

To Find:

Number of months after which the total cost for each health club be the​ same = ?

Solution:

Let   x be the number of months of membership, and   y  be equal the total cost.

For Yoga club A

y = 21.50 x + 24

For Yoga club B    

y = 17.25 x + 41.00

we know that the prices,   y , would be equal, we can set the two equations equal to each other.

21.50 x + 24 =17.25 x+ 41.00

Grouping the like terms,

21.50x - 17.25 x= 41.00 -  24

4.25x=17

x=$\frac{17}{4.25}$

x = 4
