A park charges $12 for 1 round of mini golf and a reduced fee for each additional round played. If Tom paid $47 for 6 rounds of mini golf, what is the reduced fee for each additional round played?

How would I solve this problem?? Thanks for the help!

Respuesta :

Set it up as an equation: 12 + 6x = 47
(x is the reduced fee)

12 + 6x = 47
12 - 12 + 6x = 47 - 12
6x = 35
x = 35/6
x = 5.83 repeating (only the 3 is repeating)
