help
well what do you think we can eliminate?
10 dollars for EACH person is a key phrase there, so that is where we would need to include a variable if that helps
so since it says 10 dollars for EACH person, should the variable be next to the 10 or the 195?
next to 10
yes so that shows we can eliminate two of the choices that have x next to the 195, but what variable should we have next to the 10? x or c?
c
so first, why do you think it's c?
idk why i need explation
well it says x number of people so you would need to represent the number of people with x, and if we use c next to the 10 and x=, then it would be like saying 10 dollars for each cost, which doesn't make sense, but it needs to be 10 dollars for each PERSON, and x=number of people, so what do you think the answer is now
c
actually not c, because each person gets $10 and x=number of people, and c=total cost, so c would be like saying 10$ for each total cost
so there's only one other answer that would make sense
D
yes D would make the most sense here
k so what will i write down on how I got d as my answer
well just summarize the explanations I already typed in here into one explanation and also say it can't be A or B because if it's $10 for EACH person, there must be a variable next to the 10 which in this case is x
am go find someone else to help me explain more
