Answer:
The first one is equivalent [the 6x+48 = 2(3x+24)] and the second one is <u>NOT</u> equivalent [the 7x+21 ≠ 2(5x+3)]
Step-by-step explanation:
Just follow distributive property to solve these. You can ignore the first expression in both until you have to compare the answers.
1. 6x+48 and 2(3x+24)
2(3x+24) ---> 2(3x) + 2(24) ---> <u>6x + 48</u>
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>6x+48 and 6x+48 </u>
They are the same, so they are equivalent
2. 7x+21 and 2(5x+3)
2(5x+3) ---> 2(5x) + 2(3) ----> 10x + 6
Bring in the first expression ~ <u>7x+21 and 10x + 6</u>
They are NOT the same, so they are NOT equivalent
Let x be the month on which the fee for two plans are equal.
Therefore,
150 + 10x = 50 + 30x
10x - 30x = 50 - 150
-20x = -100
x = 5
Cumulative cost = 150 + 10(5)
= 150 + 50
= 200
Hence, Karan will pay a cumulative cost of $200 dollars with either plan to go to the gym for 5 months.
