Question

Which situation CANNOT be represented by this equation? 3x+4=19?

I will give brainliest. for the person who shows there work




A) Penny is selling candles for $3 each at a fund-raiser. If she starts selling with $4 to help her make change, how many candles, x , will she have to sell to end up with $19?

B) Penny is selling candles for $4 each at a fund-raiser. If she starts selling with $3 to help her make change, how many candles, x , will she have to sell to end up with $19

C) Penny has already sold 3 candles at a fund-raiser. If she started selling with $4 to help her make change, what is the price, x , of each candle, if she ends up with $19

Answer 1

Answer=B

In the situation of B, the written problem would look like

4x+3=19      

(money from candles sold)+(money she started with)=19$

In B's case the money from the candles sold would be 4x (4 since the candles are 4 dollars a piece and x to represent the number of candles sold)

4x+(money she started with)=19$
she started with 3$ in B so we can plug that in
4x+3=19$

3x+4=19$ CANNOT be used to solve for B

Answer 2

Answer:

Penny is selling candles for $4 each at a fund-raiser

if she starts selling with $3 to help her make change, haw many candles x, will she have to sell to end up with $19?
