Five of the family members will bowl this month. The prices at Dan's Alley are listed in the table. The total budget for the outing is $115. The budget for gas and food is $25. Write an equation to find how many games each family member can bowl. Let g represent the number of games bowled by each family member. Then solve your equation.
The next month, the family tries the Bowling Palace, which is on the other side of town. They set aside $30 for gas and food. Only four family members are bowling this time. The total budget for this outing is $106. The prices at Bowling Palace are listed in the table. Write an equation to find how many games each family member can bowl. Let g represent the number of games bowled by each family member. Then solve your equation.
The following month, Mr. Bradley goes bowling by himself. He debates on which bowling alley to select based on what it will cost to bowl at each alley. How many games would he need to bowl to pay an equal amount at each bowling alley?
Given the equation \(6(8\text{g} + 2) + 45 = 153\), write a scenario similar to Parts A and B that could be represented by the equation. Solve for g and explain what each number in the equation represents, including the solution.
