Question

At the pet store, 3 cans of Nutri-Cat food cost $6.

Write two equations for this situation. Explain how each equation represents this situation.

Answer 1

Let one can be 'x'.
One of the equation is then \[3x=6\]

Answer 2

With that equation, we can solve for x in order to find out how much does one can cost.

Answer 3

I do not see the other equation...

Answer 4

Umm ok :/

Answer 5

I think i know the other one @AwesomeSays3!

Answer 6

Given that one can costs $2, then we can say that a can is represented by x and that according to the original formula of \[y=mx+c\].
Let y be the amount required to buy the product.
Then the equation shall be \[y=2x\]
