Hi there!

So, 2.25x would represet the total amount of money spent for all the games.

2.25x + 2.50 = 9.25 would be the equation to represent this scenario.

Now to solve: Our goal is the get x alone. Subtract 2.50 (the price of the shoes) from both sides. 9.25 - 2.50 = 6.75.

We are now left with 2.25x = 6.75.

Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 2.25, which leaves us with x = 3.

So you can bowl for a total of 3 games.

I hope I helped!

From the question we are told

It costs $2.50 to rent bowling shoes. Each game costs $2.25. You have $9.25. Write and solve an equation to find how many games x you can bowl.

Generally the equation for the how many games x you can bowl  is mathematically given as

Where

x= amount per bowl

x=2.50+2.25

x=4.75

Therefore

how many games x you can bowl is

[tex]y=\frac{Total amount}{amount per bowl}\\\\y=\frac{9.25}{4.75}\\\\y=1.947[/tex]
