Question

A golf driving range charges a flat fee of $20 to practice and then $5.75 for a bucket of balls. Write an equation that models the charges
c. in terms of the number of bucket of balls
b. that you use.
a. C = 5.75b+20
b. C = 20b+5.75
c. b = 5.75C+20
d. b = 20C+5.75

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

• Flat fee is $20 [initial cost]

• Each bucket of ball is $5.75

b is the number of buckets and c is the total cost

To get total cost, we add the flat fee with the bucket fee. Bucket fee is $5.75 multiplied by the number of buckets, which is b.

So, we have:

cost = $20 + $5.75b

In equation it is:   $C=5.75b+20$

Choice A is right.

Answer 2

$20+5.75b
Flat fee of $20 plus
5.75 for each bucket of balls
The variable b represents each bucket that you use
