A gym charges a monthly fee of $40 and an additional $5 per class. Write the equations for total cost and total revenue if a member takes x classes in a month. Graph the equations and identify the break-even point.
Total Cost: C = 50 + 5x; Total Revenue: R = 5x; Break-even point at 2 classes.
Total Cost: C = 40 + 10x; Total Revenue: R = 10x; Break-even point at 4 classes.
Total Cost: C = 40 + 5x; Total Revenue: R = 5x; No break-even point based on class fees alone.
Total Cost: C = 40; Total Revenue: R = 5x; Break-even point at 8 classes.

A subscription service charges $15 per month and has a setup fee of $30. Write the equations for total cost and total revenue. Graph the lines and identify the break-even point. Explain the significance of the intercepts.
Total Cost: C = 15m; Total Revenue: R = 30 + 15m; Break-even point: (2, 0)
Total Cost: C = 15 + 30m; Total Revenue: R = 15m; Break-even point: (30, 0)
Total Cost: C = 30 + 15m; Total Revenue: R = 15m; Break-even point: (0, 30)
Total Cost: C = 30m; Total Revenue: R = 15; Break-even point: (0, 15)
