Isaiah and Wanda both went bowling last weekend, but not together. Isaiah went during open bowling time, paying $16 for shoe rental and $2 per hour. Wanda went on family night, when each hour was $5 and shoe rental was $13. As it turned out, they played for the same number of hours and spent the same amount. How many hours did each one bowl?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours bowled by Isaiah and Wanda be X

Isaiah spent 16 dollars on shoe rental and 2X on bowling

Wanda spent 13 dollars on shoe rental and 5X on bowling

Since they spent the same amount, set up an equation

16+2X=13+5X

subtract 2X on either side, then subtract 13 from either side we get

3X=3

divide both sides by 3

X=1
