To justify the expense of the membership fee, Joyce needs to visit the zoo enough times to make up for the cost difference between paying for each visit and having a membership.
The cost difference between paying for each visit and having a membership is $45 (cost of each visit) - $20 (cost per visit with membership) = $25.
To calculate how many times Joyce needs to visit the zoo to justify the expense of the membership fee, divide the cost of the membership fee by the cost difference: $50 (membership fee) / $25 (cost difference) = 2.
Therefore, Joyce needs to visit the zoo at least 2 times to justify the expense of the membership fee.
Joyce wants to go to the zoo with her friend over spring break. You can pay $45 to get into the zoo each time, or join a membership for $50 and then only pay $20 each visit to the zoo. How many times will Joyce need to visit the zoo to justify the expense of the membership fee?(1 point)%0D%0AResponses%0D%0A%0D%0A3%0D%0A3%0D%0A%0D%0A2%0D%0A2%0D%0A%0D%0A5%0D%0A5%0D%0A%0D%0A10
