A gym offers regular memberships for $80 per month and off-peak memberships for $60 per month. last month, the gym sold a total of 420 memberships for a total of $31,100. how many memberships sold were regular memberships?

Respuesta :

295 regular memberships were taken last month.

Let us assume the number regular memberships = x

Let us assume the the number of off-peak membership = y

Then

x + y = 420

Using substitution method,

y = 420 - x

And

80x + 60y = 31100

Replacing the value of x from the first equation in the second equation, we get

80x + 60y = 31100

Substitute y = 420 - x

80x + 60(420 - x) = 31100

80x + 25200 - 60x = 31100

20x = 31100 - 25200

20x = 5900

x = 5900/20

x = 295

From the above deduction, we can conclude that 295 regular memberships were taken last month.
