you play ball at a club. you have 2 options for paying.
Option A, you pay $12 for court time each time you play.
Option B, you buy a membership for $120 and pay $2 each time.
a. Write and solve a linear system to determine the number of visits
A(x) = 12x
B(x) = 120 + 2x
-------------------------------------------------------------
b. For what number of visits is option B less expensive
Solve:
120+2x < 12x
10x > 120
x > 12 (When # of visits is greater than 12)
