$photorealistic educational scene, shot on 35mm lens, natural lighting with soft bokeh, golden hour or soft diffused daylight, professional documentary photography quality, culturally respectful. A young Indian girl at a vibrant village fair standing thoughtfully between a large illuminated Giant Wheel and a colorful Hoopla ring-toss stall. Small rustic wooden signs next to the attractions clearly display '₹3 per ride' and '₹4 per game'.$

Akhila's equation for her total cost is $3x + 4y = 20$ , where $x$ is Giant Wheel rides and $y$ is Hoopla games. If she had exactly 4 Giant Wheel rides ( $x=4$ ), how many Hoopla games did she play to exactly spend her ₹20 budget?

Hint

Concept: intro-systems. Substitute x = 4 into the equation 3x + 4y = 20, which gives 12 + 4y = 20. Now solve for y.
