At Mr.Vid's Video Rentals you can join his VId Club for a monthly membership fee pf $30. Club members pay only $.85 to rent each movie. If you are not a member of the VID club, the movies rent for $2.25 each.How many videos would you have to rent each month to make a membership worth the investment?

costmembers=30+.85N
costnonmembers=2.25N
set the costs equal, and solve for N

I don't understand your answer, please explain more.

30+.85n=2.25n
I'm sure you know how to solve equations..
Answered by Katherine
hey....i don't understand the question either....ii have two formulas too
Answered by alex
What are your formulas?
Answered by Katherine
30= 2.25x
x=13 movies
so i did 2.25 times 13 movies gave me about 29.25...if i did 14 movies than it will give me 31.50....i think its 13
Answered by alex
Hmm that sounds right , But mr fuchs said that the equation was y=30 * 2.25x , So i don't know , This is confusing :/
Answered by Katherine
lol...i agree 2...but if y=30*2.25x ....we know what x is but then what is y....877.5 have to do with anything...i did 2.25*13*30=877.5..
Answered by alex

mhm its just a list of what the price is if you multiply the membership price and the regular price then by 10, 20, and then you had to multiply by 22 i think
