Answer 1

To determine which options Isaiah can afford with his $25 budget, we need to calculate how many games he can buy at each bowling alley based on their prices.

1. Alley Cats: $3.97 per game

   • Cost for 6 games: \( 6 \times 3.97 = 23.82 \) (He can afford this)
   • Cost for 7 games: \( 7 \times 3.97 = 27.79 \) (He cannot afford this)

2. Bowlera: $5.49 per game

   • Cost for 6 games: \( 6 \times 5.49 = 32.94 \) (He cannot afford this)
   • Cost for 7 games: \( 7 \times 5.49 = 38.43 \) (He cannot afford this)

3. Pin Can: $4.22 per game

   • Cost for 5 games: \( 5 \times 4.22 = 21.10 \) (He can afford this)
   • Cost for 6 games: \( 6 \times 4.22 = 25.32 \) (He cannot afford this)

4. Bowl n Skate: $5.32 per game

   • Cost for 6 games: \( 6 \times 5.32 = 31.92 \) (He cannot afford this)

Based on this analysis, the options that Isaiah can afford are:

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

Thus, the correct responses are:

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