At Gamestop you can buy a Xbox One for $150.00 and each game to go with it would cost $24.00. Or, you can buy a Playstation 4 for $180.00 and each game for $20.00. Write an equation to determine how many games would need to be purchased for the cost to be equal? 

150x + 24 = 180 + 20x
150 + 24x = 180 + 20x
180 - 150 = 24 x + 20x
150 - 24x = 180 - 20x

Blind company A charges $25.00 to install blinds for one room and $5.00 for each additional window. Blind company B charges $30.00 to install blinds in one room and $4.00 for each additional window. Write an equation to determine how many blinds would need to be installed for the price to be equal.

25 + 5x = 30 + 4x
25 - 5x = 30 - 4x
30 - 25 = 4x + 5x
25x + 5 = 30x + 4

Carol wants to join a dance studio. Studio A charges $100.00 for the entry fee and $45.00 per class, while Studio B charges $125.00 for the entry fee and $30.00 per class.  Write an equation to determine how many classes would need to be taken for the price to be equal? 

125 - 100 = 45x + 30x
100x + 45 = 125x + 30
100 + 45x = 125 + 30x
100 - 45x = 125 - 30x
