Aone year membership to metro gym costs $460. there is a fee of $40 when you join, and the rest is paid monthly. write an equation to represent the situation that can members find how much they pay per month

The equation that would help members to find how much they would pay per month is

40 + 12x = 460

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that members would pay per month.

Let y represent the number of months for which a member uses the gym.

There is a fee of $40 when you join, and the rest is paid monthly. This means that the cost of using the gym for x months would be

40 + xy

A one year membership to metro gym costs $460. Therefore are 12 months in a year. Therefore,

40 + 12x = 460

12x = 460 - 40 = 420

x = 420/12 = 35

The equation that would help members to find how much they would pay per month is

you can first factor out the n to get n(1+5). we know that 1+5 is 6, so we just have 6n.
