Question

muscle max gym charges a $30 fee to join plus $2 each day that you go workout. Capital cross-fit charges $10 to join and $4 each day you use the gym. After how many days of workouts would the two gyms have cost you the same amount of money?

Answer 1

Answer:

5 workouts should be performed to equalize the costs between both gyms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Set up equations for each gym.

multiply daily cost by number of days(x) and add the fee:

Muscle max: 2x + 30

Capital: 4x + 10

Now set them

Equal to each other and solve for x:

2x + 30 = 4x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides :

30 = 2x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides :

20 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

X = 10

It will take 10 days
