Answer:

A. $70

B. $2,650

C. $5,000

D. $70

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The relation between the yearly cost of membership 'y' and the yearly club purchases 'x' is given by, [tex]y=100-0.02x[/tex]

A. It is given that the yearly club purchases is $1500 i.e. x= 1500.

So, we have,

[tex]y=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]y=100-0.02\times 1500[/tex] i.e. [tex]y=100-30[/tex] i.e. y= 70.

So, the yearly cost of membership is $70.

B. It is given that the yearly cost of membership is $47 i.e. y= 47.

So, we have,

[tex]y=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]47=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]0.02x=100-47[/tex] i.e. [tex]0.02x=53[/tex] i.e. x= 2,650

Thus, required club purchases would be $2,650

C. It is given that the yearly membership cost is $0 i.e. y= 0.

So, we have,

[tex]y=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]0=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]0.02x=100[/tex] i.e. x= 5,000

Thus, required club purchases would be $5,000.

D. It is given that the yearly club purchases is $1500 i.e. x= 1500.

So, we have,

[tex]y=100-0.02x[/tex] i.e. [tex]y=100-0.02\times 1500[/tex] i.e. [tex]y=100-30[/tex] i.e. y= 70.

So, the yearly cost of membership is $70.
