a swim club requires a $120 membership, plus $4 each swim. How much would a person pay to swim 35 times?
120 + 4(35) = ?
To calculate the total cost a person would pay to swim 35 times, you need to consider both the membership fee and the cost per swim.
The membership fee is a one-time cost and does not change regardless of the number of swims. In this case, the membership fee is $120.
The cost per swim is $4. Since the person wants to swim 35 times, you can multiply the cost per swim by the number of swims.
Calculation:
Cost per swim = $4
Number of swims = 35
Total cost of swims = Cost per swim * Number of swims
Total cost of swims = $4 * 35
Therefore, the person would pay a total of $140 for 35 swims.
Explanation of calculation:
1. Multiply the cost per swim ($4) by the number of swims (35): $4 * 35 = $140.
Keep in mind that this total cost does not include the initial membership fee of $120.
