Suppose you are having a birthday party at the local bowling alley. You are trying to figure out how many people you can afford to invite.
How much money are you willing to spend to host this bowling party?
Set up an equation that shows the inverse relationship between the number of guests at your party and the price per bowler.
Research two local bowling alleys.
Record the price per bowler at each of these two alleys.
Calculate how many guests you will be able to invite to your party at each of the bowling alleys.
Which alley would you choose for your party? Why?
