To be a member of world Fitness Gym, it costs a $60 flat fee and $30 per month. Maria has paid a total of $210 for her gym membership so far. How long has Maria been a member of the gym? Write and equation to represent this situation. Then solve the equation.

Respuesta :

60 X 3 = 180. 180+ 30 = 210. Maria has been to the gym for 3 months.
60+30x=210

60+30x=210
-60. -60
30x = 150
30/30 = 150/30
X = 5

So, Maria has been a member of the gym 5 times. You can check your answer by plugging in 5 by X

60+30(5) =210
