    Answer: it will take 6 months for both gyms to cost the same.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let m represent the number of months that it will take for the cost of both gyms be the same.

    At one gym, there is a $12 start-up fee, and after that each month, m, at the gym costs $20. This means that the total cost for m months is

    12 + 20m

    At another gym, each month at the gym costs $22. This means that the total cost for m months is 22m

    For both costs to be the same, the number of months would be

    12 + 20m = 22m

    22m - 20m = 12

    2m = 12

    m = 12/2 = 6
