Answer:
10 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Our initial cost is $55
Our variable cost is $19.50 / month (lets call it 19.50m)
Chelsey has $250 dollars to spend.
Our equation would be as follows:
19.50m + 55 = 250 (this tells how many months plus the initial cost will be covered by the 250 dollars)
19.50m +55 -55 = 250 - 55
19.50m = 195
19.50m/19.50 = 195/19.50
m = 10
Chelsey can afford the initial membership fee and 10 months of club membership.
