Question

A golf course charges $17 for a package including the full 18-hole course. The course also sells buckets of golf balls for $22 each. The golf course would like to earn $619 by the end of the day.

 

Enter a linear equation that describes the problem.

An equation for the amount of money earned by the golf course is __________= $619, where c is the number of course packages purchased, and b is the number of buckets of balls purchased.

 

Answer 1

x*17+y*22=619.............................

Answer 2

A bucket of balls costs more than playing the course?? Do you mean that a bucket costs $2?

Then, the equation would be 17c + 2b = 619

Answer 3

Question: A golf course charges $17 for a package including the full 18-hole course. The course also sells buckets of golf balls for $22 each. The golf course would like to earn $619 by the end of the day. Enter a linear equation that describes the problem.

Answer: It helps to remember that when you purchase several units of some good or service, you pay the same price for each item. If a loaf of bread costs $2, you will pay $10 for five loaves because ($2) x (5 loaves) = $10.

For this golf example, we're looking at two products: a package and a bucket. A package costs $17, and a bucket costs $22. When you pay for a number of packages and for a number of buckets, the total cost will come to $619.

So let's try this symbolization:

The total cost of...

Some number of packages at $17 each: 17c

and : +

Some number of buckets at $22 each: 22b

will be: =

$619.

17c + 22b = 619
