I have tried this 3 ways and this is my last chance to get ir rigth please help.

Dave is buying pizza and soda. Suppose that a slice of pizza and a can of soda each cost $4

Let E be the amount in dollars that Dave spends on pizza and soda. If Dave buys P slices and S cans of soda, which one of the following equations correctly describes the amount of money he spends?

E= 4P+4S
E= P+4S
4E=P+S
E= P+S

Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that S is written in terms of E and P. Which of the following is correct?

S=E-P
S=P+E
S=(1/4)E-P
S=4E-4P
S=E-4P

and then I have to graph it out of the last 18 questions I have got 3 wrong this one I can not get for the life pf me, its like trick terminology or I am overlooking something. Can someone help please.

The graph then says based on the budget constarints where each S and P are 10 with a line drawn straight down, how much money does Dave have?

To solve this problem, let's analyze the given information and use logical reasoning.

1. The equation that represents the amount of money Dave spends on pizza and soda is E = 4P + 4S. This equation states that the total amount spent (E) is equal to the cost of each slice of pizza (4P) plus the cost of each can of soda (4S).

2. Now, let's rearrange the equation to solve for S in terms of E and P. To do this, we need to isolate S on one side of the equation.
Start with E = 4P + 4S.
Subtract 4P from both sides: E - 4P = 4S.
Divide both sides by 4: (E - 4P)/4 = S.
Simplify: S = (1/4)E - P.

So, the correct equation that expresses S in terms of E and P is S = (1/4)E - P.

Now, let's move on to the graphing part.

3. The graph indicates that both P and S have a value of 10. Substitute P = 10 and S = 10 into the equation we derived earlier: S = (1/4)E - P.
S = (1/4)E - 10 = 10.
Simplify: (1/4)E - 10 = 10.
Add 10 to both sides: (1/4)E = 20.
Multiply both sides by 4: E = 80.

Therefore, based on the given budget constraints, where P = 10 and S = 10, Dave has $80.
