Dominic is deciding if he should become a member of his local ice rink. The $144 annual membership fee at the ice rink includes admission and parking, members pay $4.00 per visit to rent ice skates. Non-members pay $11 admissions, $5.00 for parking and they also pay $4.00 per visit to rent ice skates. 1. When is it better to be a member? After 4 visits how much would each pay? Member: $ Non-Member: $ After 6 visits how much would each pay? Member: $ Non-Member: $

1. members = $ 160 , non members = $ 80

2. members = $ 168 , non members = $ 120

Step-by-step explanation:

For members

Annual membership = $ 144

rent per visit charges = $ 4

For Non members

parking charges = $ 5

admission charges = $ 11

rent per visit = $ 4

(1) for 4 visits

Members pay = $ 144 + 4 x $ 4 = $ 160

Non members pay = 4 x $ 11 + 4 x $ 5 + 4 x $ 4 = $ 80

So, non member ship is better.    

(2) for 6 visits

Members pay = $ 144 + 6 x $ 4 = $ 168

Non members pay = 6 x $ 11 + 6 x $ 5 + 6 x $ 4 = $ 120

So, non member ship is better.
