Complete question :
Write a system of equations, with one equation describing the cost to bowl at Bowl-o-Rama and the other describing the cost to bowl at Bowling Pinz. For each equation, let x represent the number of games played and let y represent the total cost.
Bowl-O-Rama rents shoes for $2 and each game cost $2.50
Bowling Pinz rents shoes for $4 and each game cost $2
Answer:
Bowl-O-Rama:
y = $2 + $2.50x
Bowling pinz:
y = $4 + $2x
Explanation:
The total cost is the sum of shoe rental plus the product of the unit game rate and the number of games played.
Total cost, y
x = number of games played
Bowl-O-Rama:
y = Shoe rent + (unit rate per game * number of games)
y = $2 + ($2.50 * x)
y = $2 + $2.50x
Bowling Pinz :
y = Shoe rent + (unit rate per game * number of games)
y = $4 + ($2 * x)
y = $4 + $2x
