You can solve the equation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Gym A has a $150 joining fee and costs $35 per month.
Assuming that Casey wants to attend for x months, the cost of using gym A will be
150 + 35 times x months. It becomes
150 + 35x
Gym B has no joining fee and costs $60 per month.
Again, assuming that Casey wants to attend for x months, the cost of using gym B will be
60 × x months = 60x
A) To determine the number of months that it will both gym memberships to be the same, we will equate them.
150 + 35x = 60x
60x - 35x = 150
25x = 150
x = 150/25 = 6
It will take 6 months for both gym memberships to be the same.
B) If Casey plans to only go to the gym for 5 months,
Plan A will cost 150 + 35×5 = $325
Plan B will cost 60 × 5 = $300
Plan B will be cheaper
The answer to this problem is 5.
Answer:
6 + 3d
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can translate from English words to mathematical operations:
– Product: the result of multiplication
– Sum: the result of addition
So, we can rephrase the original sentence as “the result of adding 6 and (the result of multiplying 3 and d)”
When we multiply a constant like 3 by a variable like d, we usually write the two next to each other, which would be “3d” in this case. We can replace that last sentence in symbols with 6 + 3d
