last week to play golf, How many games
could he have played?

Respuesta :

Answer: He could have played more than 3 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality.

I golf club charges $10 to join and $5 per game: So, the cost of playing golf is equal to $10 (joining price) plus the product of the number of games played (x) and the price per game (5).

That expression must be higher than 25, since john paid more than $25.

Mathematically speaking

10+ 5 x > 25

Solving for x

5x >25-10

5x >15

x >15/5

x> 3

He could have played more than 3 games, since his cost was higher ( not equal or higher) than 25.
