After 4 visits, members would pay $160
After 4 visits, non-members would pay $80
After 6 visits, members would pay $168
After 6 visits, non-members would pay $120.
The equation that can be used to solve for the number of visits the cost would be equal is $144 + 4n = $20n
The total cost for members and non-members would be $180.
Dominic can guess the number of visits he plans to make in a year. If it would be greater than 9, he should pay for the membership. If not, he should not become a member.
<h3>What is the total cost for members and non members after 4 and 6visits?</h3>
Total cost for members = annual fee + (number of visits x cost per visit)
Total cost for non-members = (admissions + parking + cost of renting the ice skate) x number of visits
After 4 visits:
Total cost for members = $144 + (4 x 4) = $160
Total cost for non-members = (11 + 5 + 4) x 4 = $80
After 6 visits:
Total cost for members = $144 + (4 x 6) = $168
Total cost for non-members = (11 + 5 + 4) x 6 = $120
The equation that can be used to solve for the number of visits the cost would be equal is: $144 + 4n = $20n
In order to determine the value of n, take the following steps:
Combine similar terms: $144 = $20n - $4n
Add similar terms together : $144 = $16n
Divide both sides by 16 : 144 / 16
n = 9
Total cost = $20 x 9 = $180
