Billy anderson is choosing between two fitness centers. Center A charges $495 per year for unlimited use of all facilities. Center B charges a $25 sign up fee, a $15 monthly fee, and $5 per aerobics class. If billy goes to aerobics once a week, which club is least expensive for him to use for a year

Verified Answer :

It would be cheaper for Billy Anderson to go to Center B because the 25 dollar sign up fee plus the 15 dollars a month for 12 months plus 5 dollars a week for 52 weeks is 25+180+260 is 465 so he would save $30 dollars

Let's compare the cost of both the centers.

Cost of Center A:

One time charge of $495 in one year.

Cost of Center B:

  • Flat $25 dollar sign up fee
  • $15 per month, so @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@ dollars a year
  • $5 per aerobic class, so \(5*52=260\) dollars a year (given that Billy goes to class once a week) (Note: There are 52 weeks in a year)

Total cost = \(25+180+260=465\) dollars

Hence, Center B would cost \(495-465=30\) dollars cheaper.


ANSWER: Least expensive club for Billy to use for a year is Center B
