Kristina joined a health club. She paid an annual membership fee of $40 and $3.50 each time she worked out.

Part A
Write an equation to show the total amount, t, Kristina paid to go the health club z times.

Part B
Kristina spent a total of $110.00 before she stopped going to the health. How many times did she go to the health club?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Part A) The equation is [tex]t=3.50z+40[/tex]

Part B) Kristina did go to the gym 20 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t-----> the total amount

z----> the number of times that Kristina go the health club

Part A) Write an equation

we know that

The linear equation that represent this situation is

[tex]t=3.50z+40[/tex]

Part B) For [tex]t=\$110.00[/tex]

Substitute the value of t in the linear equation and solve for z

[tex]110.00=3.50z+40[/tex]

[tex]3.50z=110.00-40[/tex]

[tex]3.50z=70.00[/tex]

[tex]z=70.00/3.50[/tex]

[tex]z=20\ times[/tex]
