    The expression for the cost of the ABC Book Club is 2x + 40. The expression for the cost of the Easy Book Club is 3x + 35. To find when the total charge for both book clubs is equal, the two expressions must equal each other. (x = the number of books read)

    2x + 40 = 3x + 35

    Subtract 35 from both sides.

    2x + 5 = 3x

    Subtract 2x from both sides.

    5 = x

    So, the total charge for each club is equal when 5 books are read.
