Answer:

The cost of the green fees for each person was $16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the cost of the green fees for each person

we know that

The total cost of the green fees plus the green fees for each person must be equal to $76

so

The linear equation that represent this problem is

[tex]76=4x+2(6)[/tex]

Solve for x

Subtract 12 both sides

[tex]76-12=4x+12-12[/tex]

[tex]64=4x[/tex]

[tex]16=x[/tex]

Rewrite

[tex]x=16[/tex]

therefore

The cost of the green fees for each person was $16
