Question

A group of seven golfers paid $345 to play a round of golf. Of the golfers, one is a member of the club and six are nonmembers. Another group of golfers consists of two members and two
nonmembers. They paid a total of $140. What is the cost for a member to play a round of golf, and what is the cost for a nonmember?

Answer 1

Answer:

member = 15

nonmember = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

m = member, n= nonmember

1m+6n=345

2m + 2n =140 (divide all by 2 )

m + n = 70

m= 70 - n

70-n + 6n =345

70 + 5n = 345

5n = 345-70

5n = 275

n = 275÷5

n = 55

m = 70 - 55 = 15

m=15
