A membership at Gym A costs $50 for 5 months. A membership at Gym B down the street costs $40 for 3 months. You write two equations in the form of y=kx to try and figure out which membership would be cheaper for a year. What is the value of k for the cheaper membership?(1 point)

For Gym A, the equation is y = 50/5 * x = 10x.
For Gym B, the equation is y = 40/3 * x = 13.33x (rounded).

Since the value of k for Gym A is smaller (10 < 13.33), the value of k for the cheaper membership is 10. Answer: \boxed{10}.
Two equations are written to express how far a car can go when driving on different roads. On Road 1, the car can go 60 miles in 2 hours. On Road 2, the car can go 90 miles in 4 hours. Write an equation where y is the distance in miles and x is the time in hours to represent the motion of the faster car.(1 point)
