Amy joined a gym with a $58 enrollment fee. The equation below can be used to find the total Amy has paid, y, if she has belonged to the gym for x months. Y = 46x + 58
This is assuming that she paid $46 a month for x months beside the initial $58.
The equation given is Y = 46x + 58, where Y represents the total amount Amy has paid and x represents the number of months she has belonged to the gym.
To find the total amount Amy has paid, you need to substitute the value of x (the number of months) into the equation and solve for Y.
For example, if Amy has belonged to the gym for 3 months, you would substitute x = 3 into the equation:
Y = 46(3) + 58
Now you can simplify the equation:
Y = 138 + 58
Y = 196
So, if Amy has belonged to the gym for 3 months, she would have paid a total of $196.
