, plus $4 for shoe rental. The cost, C
, to bowl at Bowling Pinz is $4 per game, g
, plus $8 for shoe rental. Write the pair of linear equations that model this situation.(1 point)
Equation to represent the cost at Bowl-O-Rama: C=


Equation to represent the cost at Bowling Pinz: C=

Answer 1

To model the cost of bowling at both Bowl-O-Rama and Bowling Pinz using linear equations, we can set up the equations as follows:

1. For Bowl-O-Rama, the cost \( C \) is given by: \[ C = 5g + 4 \] where \( g \) is the number of games played.

2. For Bowling Pinz, the cost \( C \) is: \[ C = 4g + 8 \]

Therefore, the pair of linear equations that represent this situation are:

Equation to represent the cost at Bowl-O-Rama: \[ C = 5g + 4 \]

Equation to represent the cost at Bowling Pinz: \[ C = 4g + 8 \]
