Let x be the number of visits.
For the first option, the cost is $10 per visit. So the total cost would be 10x.
For the second option, the monthly cost is $32, plus $6 per visit. So the total cost would be $32 + $6x.
Setting the two costs equal to each other:
10x = 32 + 6x
Subtracting 6x from both sides:
4x = 32
Dividing by 4:
x = 8
It would take 8 visits for the cost of the two plans to be equal.
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.(1 point)
