Plan A: a monthly membership fee of $25, plus $2 per visit Plan

Plan B: a fee of $7 per visit.
Determine which plan is cheaper if you go each day for one month (30 days)

1 answer

To determine which plan is cheaper when going each day for one month (30 days), we need to calculate the total cost for both Plan A and Plan B.

Plan A:

  • Membership fee: $25
  • Cost per visit: $2
  • Total visits in one month: 30

Total cost for Plan A: \[ \text{Total cost} = \text{Membership fee} + (\text{Cost per visit} \times \text{Number of visits}) \] \[ \text{Total cost} = 25 + (2 \times 30) \] \[ \text{Total cost} = 25 + 60 = 85 \]

Plan B:

  • Cost per visit: $7
  • Total visits in one month: 30

Total cost for Plan B: \[ \text{Total cost} = \text{Cost per visit} \times \text{Number of visits} \] \[ \text{Total cost} = 7 \times 30 = 210 \]

Now we can compare the total costs:

  • Plan A: $85
  • Plan B: $210

Conclusion: Plan A is cheaper than Plan B for going each day for one month.
