Mariana Singleton · Answer 1

Using the variable m for month

Club A: Club B:

19m+11 19m+11=18m+15 18m+15

-18m - 18m

m+11 = 15

-11 - 11

m=4

Check 19 (4) + 11 = 87 18 (4) + 15 = 87

total cost = 87

Club A is 11+19m Club B is 15+18m When they cost the same the two expressions are equal so: 11+19m = 15+18m M. = 4 In 4 months the two health clubs will cost the same amount. The cost of each club is $87.
