Answer 1

To find the cost per game, we can calculate the rate of change or the cost of each game for both Terry and Tommy.

1. **Cost per game for Terry:**
- Terry paid $22.50 for 3 games.
- Cost per game = Total cost / Number of games
\[
\text{Cost per game for Terry} = \frac{22.50}{3} = 7.50
\]

2. **Cost per game for Tommy:**
- Tommy paid $15 for 2 games.
- Cost per game = Total cost / Number of games
\[
\text{Cost per game for Tommy} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.50
\]

Both Terry and Tommy paid the same rate of $7.50 per game.

Thus, the cost per game is **$7.50 per game**.
