A movie discount pass, which has an annual fee of $50, allows a moviegoer to pay $6 per movie. If a movie ticket normally costs $8.50, how many movie tickets must a moviegoer buy to make the discount pass a bargain? Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 50+6X=8.50X
6X-8.50X=-50
-2.5X=-50
X=-50/-2.5
X=20 TICKETS BOUGHT MAKES THE 2 OFFERINGS EQUAL.
THUS MORE THAN 20 TICKETS PER YEAR MAKES THE ANNUAL FEE A BETTER DEAl.
