If I use the gym for x hours in a month, the total cost in terms of x will be 1000 + x.
a. Monthly membership fee = $100
Additional amount charged = $1 per hour.
If I use the gym for x hours in a month, the total cost in terms of x will be:
= 1000 + 1(x)
= 1000 + x
b. Also, if the amount charged is $35 per month and $3.50 per hour, the total cost will be:
= 35 + 3.50(x)
= 35 + 3.5x
c. The number of hours that will give same cost will be:
1000 + x = 35 + 3.5x
Collect like terms.
1000 - 35 = 3.5x - x
965 = 2.5x
x = 965/2.5
x = 386
In 386 hours, the total cost will be the same.
