34 points - logical answers suppose you are having a birthday party at the local bowling alley. you are trying to figure out how many people you can afford to invite. a. the number of guests you can invite to your party varies inversely with the price per bowler at the alley. explain what this means. b. how much money are you willing to spend to host this bowling party? c. set up an equation that shows the inverse relationship between the number of guests at your party and the price per bowler. your answer to part (b) should be part of this equation. d. research two local bowling alleys. record the price per bowler at each of these two alleys. calculate how many guests you will be able to invite to your party at each of the bowling alleys. which alley would you choose for your party? why?

These are the answer that I got:

A. That means: "The more it costs, the fewer people you can invite."

B. Amount you can spend = M; You will have to come up with this number -   whatever you think is reasonable.

C. (C = Cost per person, P = number of people you can invite )

D. You will have two equations. In the first equation, C will be the per-person cost at the first bowling alley. In the second equation, C will be the per-person cost at the second bowling alley.

E. Be sure to think this through. Yes, you will be able to host more guests at the bowling alley with the lowest per-person cost, but is that the only factor you need to consider? What about location? Quality of lanes and bowling equipment? Music? Food? Customer Service? Consider ALL aspects.  You might pick the more expensive bowling alley because you feel would have a better experience, or maybe you don't want to invite lots of people anyway. 

Hope this helps!
