Option 1
Cost per visit: $28
Number of visits: 3
Total cost: $28 * 3 = $84
Option 2
Membership cost: $90
Cost per visit: $15
Number of visits: 3
Total cost: $90 + ($15 * 3) = $90 + $45 = $135
Based on the calculations, Option 1 is the best choice as it will cost a total of $84 compared to Option 2 which will cost $135.
To determine the best option, we need to compare the total cost of visiting the amusement park three times using each pricing option: the $28 per visit option and the monthly membership option.
Option 1: $28 per visit
Visiting the amusement park three times at $28 per visit would cost:
3 visits * $28 per visit = $84
Option 2: Monthly membership + $15 per visit
With the monthly membership, each visit costs an additional $15.
The monthly membership costs a one-time fee of $90.
To calculate the total cost for three visits using the monthly membership option:
Cost of the monthly membership: $90
Cost per visit (excluding the monthly membership fee): $15
Total cost of three visits: 3 visits * $15 per visit = $45
Adding the cost of the monthly membership fee:
Total cost using the monthly membership option: $90 + $45 = $135
Comparing the costs:
Option 1: $84
Option 2: $135
Based on these calculations, if you have plans to attend the amusement park three times this summer, the best option would be Option 1, which costs $84 in total.
To determine which option is best, let's compare the total cost for both scenarios:
Option 1: Pay per visit
Cost per visit: $28
Number of visits planned: 3
Total cost for 3 visits: 3 x $28 = $<<3*28=84>>84
Option 2: Monthly membership + pay per visit
Cost for monthly membership: $90
Cost per visit: $15
Number of visits planned: 3
Total cost for 3 visits: 3 x $15 = $<<3*15=45>>45
Total cost for monthly membership + 3 visits: $90 + $45 = $<<90+45=135>>135
Comparing the total costs, it is clear that the best option is Option 1: Pay per visit, as the total cost for 3 visits is $84, which is lower than the total cost of $135 for the monthly membership plus 3 visits.
