Question

Amy wants to buy soda and pizza for her Halloween party. She has $45 to spend. One case of soda costs $4, and one pizza costs $8. Write an equation that could be used to find a valid combination for many pizzas and cases of soda can she afford.

  1. 4x + 8y = 12
  2. 4x - 8y = 45
  3. 12xy = 45
  4. 4x + 8y = 45

hintHint:

In the question, we are given the price of a soda nd a pizza and the total money spent on them by Amy is given. We are required to form an equation that could be used to find a valid combination for many pizzas and cases of soda can she afford.

The correct answer is: 4x + 8y = 45


    Step by step solution:
    price of a case of soda = $4
    price of a pizza =$8
    total money Amy spent = $45
    let us assume she bought x cases of soda and y pizzas
    The equation is: 4x + 8y = 45
    Hence, option(b) is the correct option.
