Cameron has $20 to spend on dog treats. He plans to buy individually wrapped gourmet dog bones and I’ll biscuits that his dogs live. Cameron created a graph to illustrate his options which equation care response to Cameron situation. A. 2x+5y=20, 5x+2y=20, 10x+4y=20, 2x+5y=10
Based on Cameron's situation where he plans to buy individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) and I’ll biscuits (y), the equation that represents his options is 2x + 5y = 20.
To find the equation that represents Cameron's situation, we need to use the information given in the question. Let's analyze the options provided:
A. 2x + 5y = 20
B. 5x + 2y = 20
C. 10x + 4y = 20
D. 2x + 5y = 10
Let's break down the equation step by step and see if it matches Cameron's situation.
Cameron has $20 to spend, so the total value of his purchases (represented by the left side of the equation) should be 20.
Next, Cameron plans to buy individually wrapped gourmet dog bones and I'll biscuits. Let's assign variables to each item:
Let x represent the number of individually wrapped gourmet dog bones.
Let y represent the number of I'll biscuits.
According to the question, the individually wrapped gourmet dog bones are more expensive, while the I'll biscuits are cheaper. Hence, it makes sense that the coefficient of x should be higher than the coefficient of y.
Analyzing the options:
A. 2x + 5y = 20
B. 5x + 2y = 20
C. 10x + 4y = 20
D. 2x + 5y = 10
Option A satisfies the condition that the individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (represented by 2x) are more expensive than the I'll biscuits (represented by 5y). The equation also equates to 20, which matches Cameron's budget. Therefore, the equation that represents Cameron's situation is option A: 2x + 5y = 20.
To determine the correct equation that represents Cameron's situation, we need to consider the information given.
The options mentioned are individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) and I'll biscuits (y).
From the information given, we know that Cameron has $20 to spend.
Option A: 2x + 5y = 20
Option B: 5x + 2y = 20
Option C: 10x + 4y = 20
Option D: 2x + 5y = 10
Let's evaluate each option:
Option A: 2x + 5y = 20
This equation represents the possibility of purchasing two individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) for $2 each and five I'll biscuits (y) for $5 each. However, this equation does not account for the fact that Cameron has a total budget of $20.
Option B: 5x + 2y = 20
This equation represents the possibility of purchasing five individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) for $5 each and two I'll biscuits (y) for $2 each. However, this equation does not account for the fact that Cameron has a total budget of $20.
Option C: 10x + 4y = 20
This equation represents the possibility of purchasing ten individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) for $10 each and four I'll biscuits (y) for $4 each. However, this equation does not account for the fact that Cameron has a total budget of $20.
Option D: 2x + 5y = 10
This equation represents the possibility of purchasing two individually wrapped gourmet dog bones (x) for $2 each and five I'll biscuits (y) for $5 each. However, this equation incorrectly assumes a total budget of $10 instead of $20.
None of the options accurately represent Cameron's situation.
