For 5 games, the cost will be equal for each option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Lane rental of offer A = $20

Per game charges = $3

Let,

x be the number of games.

A(x) = 3x + 20

Lane rental is $35 for maximum 10 games.

B(x) = 35

For the cost to be same;

A(x) = B(x)

$3x+20=35\\3x=35-20\\3x=15$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\\x=5$

For 5 games, the cost will be equal for each option.
