Let x represent the number of cycling classes Mary took.
The equation to represent Mary's total bill for one month is:
9.95 + 3.25x = 39.20
This equation shows that Mary paid $9.95 for the monthly membership plus $3.25 for each cycling class she took, which totaled $39.20 for the month.
Translate into an equation
