Answer: 4 games

Explanation:

Whether Denise bowls or not, he incurs rent for bowling shoes and per bowling he has to pay $4.75 while he rented shoes for $3.

Then the equation is:

y = 3 + 4.75x

Where

y is the total cost

x is Number of bowling

y = 3 + 4.75x

3 + 4.75x = 22

4.75x = 22 - 3

4.75x = 19

x = 19/4.75

x = 4

Denise bowled 4 games.
