Answer 1

To determine which options Isaiah can afford with his $20 budget, we need to calculate the maximum number of games he can play at each bowling alley based on the given prices.

1. Alley Cats: $4.25 per game

   • Maximum games: \( \frac{20}{4.25} \approx 4.7 \)
   • Isaiah can afford 4 games (\($4.25 \times 4 = $17\)).

2. Bowlera: $5.25 per game

   • Maximum games: \( \frac{20}{5.25} \approx 3.81 \)
   • Isaiah can afford 3 games (\($5.25 \times 3 = $15.75\)).

3. Pin Can: $3.75 per game

   • Maximum games: \( \frac{20}{3.75} \approx 5.33 \)
   • Isaiah can afford 5 games (\($3.75 \times 5 = $18.75\)).

4. Bowl n Skate: $3.50 per game

   • Maximum games: \( \frac{20}{3.50} \approx 5.71 \)
   • Isaiah can afford 5 games (\($3.50 \times 5 = $17.5\)).

Based on these calculations, the options Isaiah can afford out of the responses given are:

• 5 games at Pin Can
• 6 games at Bowl n Skate (Note: This is incorrect because he can afford only 5 games at Bowl n Skate.)

Only one correct option here stands:

• 5 games at Pin Can

For games at Bowl n Skate, he can afford 5, not 6.

Thus, the accurate answers based on affordability are:

• 5 games at Pin Can
• 5 games at Bowl n Skate (He can afford, hence you may refer to equating range.)

So select:

• 5 games at Pin Can
• 5 games at Bowl n Skate
