On Saturday, you bowl at Mar Vista Bowl, where renting shoes costs $2 and each game bowled is $3.50. On Sunday, you bowl at Pinz, where the shoe rental is $5 and each game bowled is $3.25. If you spent the same amount each day, how many games were bowled? Write an equation.
2x + 3.50 = 5x + 3.25
3.50x + 2 = 3.25x + 5
2x - 3.50 = 5x - 3.25
3.50x - 2 = 3.25x - 5

A handyman charges $150 plus $25 per hour for house painting. A painter charges $55 per hour. How many hours would a job have to take for the handyman's fee and the painter's fee to be the same? Write an equation.

25x + 150 = 55
55x + 150 = 25

A Southwest airplane starts at 2,000 feet above sea level and descends 100 feet every minute. A Delta airplane starts at 2,400 feet above sea level and descends 150 feet every minute. When will the planes be at the same altitude? Write and equation.
2000x - 100 = 2400x - 150
2000 - 100x = 2400 - 150x
2000 + 100x = 2400 + 150x
2000x + 100x = 2400x + 150
