    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the number of games that Ronald bowled.

    He went for bowling with his friends and paid $9 to rent shoes, but has a coupon for $3 dollars off the shoes. It means that the amount he paid to rent the shoes is

    9 - 3 = $6

    He paid $9.50 for each game of bowling. It means that the total amount she would pay for x games is

    9.5x + 6

    If she spent a total of $84, it means that

    9.5x + 6 = 84

    9.5x = 84 - 6

    9.5x = 78

    x = 78/9.5

    x = 8.2

    Since the number of games cannot be a fraction, then

    Ronald bowled 8 games
