1 answer

To model the cost of bowling at each location, we can write the following linear equations:

  1. For Bowl-O-Rama:
    The cost, \( C \), is calculated as $5 per game, \( g \), plus $4 for shoe rental.
    Thus, the equation is:
    \[ C = 5g + 4 \]

  2. For Bowling Pinz:
    The cost, \( C \), is calculated as $4 per game, \( g \), plus $8 for shoe rental.
    Thus, the equation is:
    \[ C = 4g + 8 \]

So, the pair of linear equations that model this situation is:

  1. \( C = 5g + 4 \) (Bowl-O-Rama)
  2. \( C = 4g + 8 \) (Bowling Pinz)
