Question

Annie went bowling. It cost $3 to rent shoes, plus $4 for every game that she played. She spent $11 total. How would you represent this situation using an equation, and using algebra tiles?

Answer 1

3s + 4g= $11

S= means shoes
G= means games

Answer 2

Explanation:

3+4g=11, subtract 3 from both sides

4g=8, divide both sides by 4

g=2, so two games were played
