Fiona joins a fruit of the month club. The entry cost is $25 and then she pays $18 per month. If she participates for 8 months, how much will she pay in all?

Answer: $169

Step-by-step explanation: The expression 25 + 18 x 8 represents the amount she will pay if she participates for 8 months.

Multiply 18 x 8 to find the cost for 8 months. $18 x 8 = $144.

Now add $25 to $144, which equals $169

Answer: 169

Step-by-step explanation: first off you should note that the entry cost being 25 dollars is a one time thing (it should be the number that you add to the amount she pays for 8 months) The first step is to multiply 18 by 8. This is because she pays $18 per month, for 8 months. the product will be $144. Then you add the entry cost which is $25 which in all comes out to $169.
