Write the equations THEN solve by any method
Bowl-O-Rama charges 2.50 per game plus $2.00 for shoe rental and
Bowling Pinz charges $2 per game and $4.00 for shoe rental. For
how many games will the cost to the bowl be the same at both
places? What is the cost?

Answer 1

$18.00

Explanation:

Bowl-O-Rama: $4.50 times 4

Bowling Pinz: $6.00 times 3

Answer 2

Answer: 4,12

Explanation:

Bowl-O-Rama:

y = 2 + 2.50x

Bowling Pinz:

y = 4 + 2x

When you graph this, the solution is (4, 12). This represents that when you play 4 games for either company, both the prices will be the same, $12.
