Complete question;

A group of eight golfers paid $430 to play a round of golf . Of the golfers one was a member and 7 were not.

Another group of golfers consists of two members and one nonmember. They paid a total of $75. What is the cost for a member to play a round of golf, and what is the cost for a nonmember?

Answer: X = $82.695 for members

Y = $49.615 for non members

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use X to denote members and Y for non-members.

Therefore, amount paid by one member to play + amount paid by 7 non-members to play = 430

X + 7Y = 430. . .1

Amount paid by 2 members to play + amount paid by one non-member to play = 215

2X + Y = 215. . .2

Solving both equations simultaneously

X+7Y = 430

2X +Y = 215

Therefore, from eqn 1. X = 430-7y

Substituting this into wan 2 gives

2(430-7Y) + Y = 215

860-14Y + Y = 215

860-215 =13Y

645 = 13y

Y = 49.615

Therefore substituting Y = 49.615 into any equation above

X + 7(49.615) = 430

X = 430-347.05

X = 82.695
