Question

At the bowling alley, Terry paid $22.50 and bowled 3 games while Tommy bowled 2 games and paid $15. Interpret the rate of change by identifying the cost of each game.(1 point)

$
per game

Answer 1

To find the rate of change, we can divide the change in cost by the change in number of games.

For Terry, the change in cost is $22.50 - $15 = $7.50 and the change in number of games is 3 - 2 = 1.

So the rate of change for Terry is $7.50 / 1 = $7.50 per game.

Therefore, the cost of each game is $7.50.
