Answer 1

To determine which options Isaiah can afford, we'll need to calculate the total cost for each scenario based on the prices given for each bowling alley.

1. Pin Can: $4.22 per game

   • 5 games: \(5 \times 4.22 = 21.10\)

2. Bowl n Skate: $5.32 per game

   • 6 games: \(6 \times 5.32 = 31.92\)

3. Bowlera: $5.49 per game

   • 7 games: \(7 \times 5.49 = 38.43\)

4. Alley Cats: $3.97 per game

   • 6 games: \(6 \times 3.97 = 23.82\)

Now let's summarize the total costs:

• 5 games at Pin Can: $21.10 (Affordable)
• 6 games at Bowl n Skate: $31.92 (Not Affordable)
• 7 games at Bowlera: $38.43 (Not Affordable)
• 6 games at Alley Cats: $23.82 (Affordable)

Thus, the two options Isaiah can afford are:

• 5 games at Pin Can
• 6 games at Alley Cats
