Question

At a local fitness​ center, members pay a $14 membership fee and ​$4 for each aerobics class. Nonmembers pay ​$5 for each aerobics class. For what number of aerobics classes will the cost for members and nonmembers be the​ same?

Answer 1

14 classes

Explanation:

Members:

They pay $4 each class, and $14 flat fee.

4x+14

Nonmembers:

They pay $5 each class

5x

Set the 2 expressions equal to each other

4x+14=5x

Subtract 4x from both sides

14=x

After 14 classes, the cost for members and nonmembers will be the same

Hope this helps! :)
