Question

A fitness club charges a onetime $75 initiation fee plus $30 each month for a member to maintain her membership. Which equation below models the total cost, c, the club charges as a function of the number of months, m, that the individual has maintained her membership?

1) c = 75m + 30
2) c = 1/30m + 75
3) c = 30m + 75
4) c = 900 + 30m

Answer 1

c = 30m + 75

Explanation:

Because the 75 dollars is only one time you add that to the total. Because it is 30 dollars PER MONTH and m is the number of months you would multiply those two in order to know how much you would be paying!

Hope this helps!
