You are a member of your local movie theater’s club. Every time you see a movie at the theater, you earn 2 advantage points. When you earn 100 points, you get a free movie pass.
Currently, you have 40 advantage points.
Write an equation to model the number of movies m you have to watch before you earn a free movie pass.
Solve the equation. Show your work.
40+2m=100
40-40=0
100-40=60
60/2=30
Is it: 40 + 2m = 100?
the answer is 30
exactly, the subtract both sides by 40 and then divide both sides by two to get m=30
1.y=2m+40 y=number of points needed
2.100=2m+40
60=2m
m=30
Right.
It's suppose to be in algebra
I can see how some people think it is 60. But if you earn 2 advantage points every time you see a movie then you would divide 60 by 2.
If you think the answer is 60 then your wrong. It is 30.
Yall the answer is 30
40+2m = 100
2m=100−40 (subtract both sides from 40, 100 - 40 = 60)
2m=60 (now you DIVIDE both sides by 2)
m= 60/2
m=30, so the answer is 30 :)
How about 100 - x = 40
it is 30
it's 30 lol yall crack me up
Ok correct me if I'm wrong, but y=2m+40 and y=number of points needed
100=2m+40 60=2m m=30. Were did ya'll get 60 from? please explain. If you did get 30 or 60 the reason for this website is to explain answers to your peers. How do we know to trust you? How do we learn how to do it, so that we can one day teach someone else? We can't, so if you want to make an argument on either it's 30 or 60 then support your claim with evidence. Thanks and stay safe out on the web!
you guys it's 30. just think, 30x2=60, 60+40=100. that's not the equation you should use but it just shows the logic of the answer being 30
Just do 100 -40=60
60 divided by 2 = 30
So you would need to watch 30 movies
