After 3 games, the total cost with shoe rental is $14. Question: Write an equation to represent the total cost "y" to rent shoes and bowl "x" games? second Question: How much is shoe rental?

Since X and x are two entirely different things, then no one can say that your "I think" answer is actually wrong. However, your answer certainly isn't very useful or descriptive of the problem you are trying to model. Why don't you take some time to explain what you mean by y = X and why you think that is the answer?
