Easy Medal The movie theater sold p bags of popcorn and n nachos last night. Popcorn sells for x dollars and nachos sell for y dollars. What is the best interpretation of the following equation in everyday language? 3y = x The number of nachos sold is 3 times the number of bags of popcorn sold. The cost of nachos is 3 times the cost of a bag of popcorn. The cost of a bag of popcorn is 3 times the cost of nachos. The cost of a bag of popcorn is 3 dollars more than the cost of nachos.
it seems to look like its B @SACAPUNTAS
this is my grade in the right hand corner i just have to get it at 70% or above it please help me do this
\(3y = x\) means you can get 3 nachos for the same price as 1 popcorn
I don't care about your grade. I am trying to help you learn. :P
i think it might be the second choice
i understand lol but i do think its B
No, I think you have it backwards.
then maybe A
so its D
Where did dollars even figure in? Like I said, \(3y = x\) means that you can get 3 nachos for the same price as 1 popcorn. If a popcorn is $6 that means nachos are $2 because \(3\times2 = 6\)
so its D
No.
oh so no dollars so its A
No.
so @mony01
oh its B
its C
Yes. It's C. (C is the only one left so apparently it is.. :P )
ugh it was C gosh how did i get tht wrong
Too much random guessing and not enough thinking? :D
