Sagot :

$431.85.  I got this by multiplying the amount of weeks in a year (52) by two to get 104.  I then multiplied that by 3.5  to get 364.  I then added 32.85 and 35 to that to get $431.85

Answer: Swimming will cost $431.85 for Marla (per year).

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this we have to calculate how many weeks are in a year:

If a year has 365 days, we have to divide it by 7 ( the number of days in a week)

So: 365 / 7  =52.14 = 52 weeks

Now, with the information given we have to multiply the number of weeks by the cost per visit multiplied by 2 ( because marla swims twice a week) and add the quipment cost ($32.85) and the membership cost ($35).

Mathematically speaking:

$3.50 x 2 x 52 w + $32.85 + $35 =

$364 + $32.85 + $35 =$431.85

In conclusion,   swimming will cost $431.85 for Marla (per year).
