Question

Jim has to choose between two gym membership plans. Plan A has a $50 initial fee and then it costs $10 per visit. Plan b has a initial $25 membership fee and then it will cost her $15 per visit

Answer 1

If we are looking for when they would be the same at a given time:

First, we need to set them to each other:

50 + 10x = 25 + 15x

Move them around and then get this:

25 = 5x

Divide by 5 from both sides

5 = x
