1. **Stating the problem:** We have two types of golf memberships with different cost structures. We want to find a linear function for the greenfeemedlemskap cost and determine when the fullständigt medlemskap becomes cheaper.
2. **Define variables and functions:** Let $x$ be the number of times played in a year.
- Greenfeemedlemskap cost function: $f(x) = kx + m$
- Fullständigt medlemskap cost is fixed at 4275.
3. **Set up the greenfeemedlemskap function:** From the table, the annual fee is 2000 and the cost per play is 150.
So, $$f(x) = 150x + 2000$$
4. **Find when fullständigt medlemskap is cheaper:** We want to find $x$ such that
$$4275 < 150x + 2000$$
5. **Solve the inequality:**
$$4275 < 150x + 2000$$
Subtract 2000 from both sides:
$$4275 - 2000 < 150x$$
$$2275 < 150x$$
Divide both sides by 150:
$$\frac{2275}{150} < x$$
Show cancellation:
$$\frac{\cancel{2275}}{\cancel{150}} < x$$
Calculate:
$$15.166\ldots < x$$
6. **Interpretation:** You need to play more than approximately 15.17 times for the fullständigt medlemskap to be cheaper.
**Final answers:**
- a) $f(x) = 150x + 2000$
- b) $x > 15.17$ times
