To determine which store has the better buy on footballs, we need to compare the prices of the footballs at Store 1 and Store 2.

Based on the responses provided:

  1. Response 1: Store 1’s football costs $12, and Store 2’s football costs $9.

    • Store 2 has the better buy since $9 < $12.
  2. Response 2: Store 1’s football costs $12, and Store 2’s football costs $9.

    • Again, Store 2 has the better buy.
  3. Response 3: Store 2’s football costs $12, and Store 1’s football costs $9.

    • This states the opposite; however, Store 1 has the cheaper football at $9.
  4. Response 4: Store 2’s football costs $12, and Store 1’s football costs $9.

    • This is the same as Response 3, confirming Store 1 has the better buy.
  5. Response 5: Store 1’s football costs $24, and Store 2’s football costs $9.

    • Store 2 has the better buy since $9 < $24.
  6. Response 6: Store 1’s football costs $24, and Store 2’s football costs $9.

    • Again, this confirms Store 2 has the better buy.
  7. Response 7: Store 2’s football costs $9, and Store 1’s football costs $3.

    • Here, Store 1 has the better buy since $3 < $9.

From these responses, we can summarize:

  • When Store 1's football costs $12 or $24, Store 2 always has the better buy.
  • When Store 1's football costs $3, then Store 1 has the better buy.

So, the answer about which store has the better buy varies depending on football pricing. However, considering the lowest general price mentioned, Store 2 ($9) is the common better buy unless Store 1 is priced lower at $3.
