Two types of memberships are available for a water park:

• an unlimited use membership for $70 per month, or

• a monthly $10 fee plus $5.00 per visit.

Enter an equation that can be used to find the number of visits (v) per month needed for the two membership types

to cost the same amount.

First: 70v = 10v + 5

Second: 60v = 5

Third: v = 1/12

12 visits are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a monthly $10 fee plus $5.00 per visit can be expressed in an equation as follows:

Cost = 10 + 5*v

where v is the number of visits per month.

If the two membership types cost the same amount, then:

10 + 5*v = 70

5*v = 70 - 10

v = 60/5

v = 12
