Write and Solve Linear Equations

A driving range charges $4 to rent a golf club plus $2.75 for every bucket of golf balls you hit. Write an equation that shows the total cost c of hitting b buckets of golf balls.

• c = 2.75b + 4
• c = 2.75b
• c =  4b- 2.75
• c = 2.75b - 4

Valley Video charges a $15 annual fee plus $3 per movie for rentals. Last year, Jennifer spent $99 at the video store. How many movies did she rent? Write the linear equation and solve for the number of movies.

• 15x + 3x = 99    and 6 movies
• 15x + 3 = 99 and 6 movies
• 3x + 15 = 99 and 28 movies
• 3x + 99 = 15 and 28 movies
