Question 828081: Hi. Can you please help me with this? My question is,
You are a member of your local movie theater's club. Every time you see a movie at the theater, you earn 2 advantage points. When you earn 100 points, you get a free movie pass. Currently, you have 40 advantage points.
1) Write an equation to model the number of movies, m, you have to watch before you earn a free movie pass.
2) Solve the equation. Show your work.
I don't really know how to start it of nor do it. I'm just going to take a guess on how I start it off. 100/40 + 2m? Is that the equation?
Thanks for your help.
