A yoga studio has two participation plans. For the first plan, the cost is $8 per visit. For the second plan, the cost is $40 per month, and $2 per visit. Write an equation to show the number of visits per month that it would take for the two plans to be equal. Use x as your variable.

1 answer

Plan 1: $8 per visit

Plan 2: $40 per month + $2 per visit

Equation:

8x = 40 + 2x

Solving for x:

8x - 2x = 40

6x = 40

x = 40 / 6

x = 6.67

So, it would take 6.67 visits per month for the two plans to be equal. Since you can't have a fraction of a visit, this would round up to 7 visits.
