Let's assume the cost of one month of gameplay is x dollars.
Angie's total cost is $50 (software package) + 2x (2 months of gameplay) = $50 + 2x
Kenny's total cost is $50 (software package) + 5x (5 months of gameplay) = $50 + 5x
The total cost for both of them is given as $244, so we can set up the equation:
$50 + 2x + $50 + 5x = $244
Simplifying the equation, we get:
7x + $100 = $244
Subtracting $100 from both sides:
7x = $144
Dividing both sides by 7:
x = $20.
Therefore, the cost of one month of gameplay is $20.
