Answer:

<em>It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible options for gyms to choose from:

Gym Strong charges $350 plus $15 a month

Gym Fit charges $100 plus $24 a month.

Since Gym Strong charges less per month but has a higher initial fee, there will be some time when it will be a cheaper option than Gym Fit.

Let's solve this by analyzing the differences in fixed fees and monthly fees.

The difference of fixed fees is $350 - $100 = $250

The difference on monthly fees is $24 - $15 = $9

Both gyms will charge the same total fees when have passed 250/9 = 27.7 months. Since the number of months is a whole number, we round up.

It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.

Solve for x. MUST SHOW ALL WORK TO RECEIVE FULL CREDIT! (See picture for equation)
ioda
\frac{x}{2.4} = \frac{3}{8}

For proportions and to find x we have to cross multiply
8 × (x) = 3 × 2.4

8x = 7.2
Divide by 8 to isolate x

\frac{8x}{8} =  \frac{7.2}{8}
8 and 8 cancels out

x = 0.9
