An ice skating rink has two ways you can use the facility. The first option is to pay $10 per visit. The second option is to pay $32 per month, and $6 per visit. Write and solve an equation to show the number of visits it would take for the cost of the two plans to be equal.

Let x be the number of visits.
Cost of option 1: 10x.
Cost of option 2: 32 + 6x.
Set them equal: 10x = 32 + 6x
4x = 32
x = 8
At 8 visits the costs are equal ($80). For more than 8 visits the $32/month + $6/visit plan is cheaper; for fewer than 8 visits pay-per-visit is cheaper.
