1. At the Driving Range
Name:
Inspired by the saying “practice makes perfect“, you decide to perfect your golf swing by going to the local driving range. Unfortunately, you do not have your own set of clubs yet so you must rent from the range. Each bucket of 100 golf balls costs $7.50 and it costs $3.00 to rent clubs.
1. Write an algebraic equation for the total cost at the driving range dependent on the
number of buckets of balls you buy. Write your equation using functional notation with
C(x) representing the cost.

2. 2. Show all work and answer in complete sentence
a. What is the total cost to hit five buckets worth of balls?

7. 4. The owner of the driving range is looking at the receipts for the day. Are the following
costs correct? Explain why or why not in a complete sentence.
a. $48 for 6 buckets and club rental
b. $70 for 9 buckets and club rental
5. What would be the domain based on the problem situation?
