An amusement park that you are excited to try is $28 per visit.

You have the option to purchase a monthly membership for $90 and then pay $15 for each visit.
How many visits would be approximately the break even point where both options would cost about the same

1 answer

To find the break-even point where both options would cost about the same, we need to solve the equation:

$90 + $15x = $28x

where x represents the number of visits.

Simplifying the equation, we get:

$90 = $28x - $15x
$90 = $13x

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by $13:

x = $90 / $13
x ≈ 6.923

Therefore, at approximately the seventh visit, both options would cost about the same.
