Here's the question, I'm confused because I thought all the answers were wrong. One has to be right so.... help.
Dave is buying pizza and soda. Suppose that a slice of pizza and a can of soda each cost $4. Let E represent the amount in dollars that Dave spends on pizza and soda. If Dave buys P slices of pizza and S cans of soda, which of the following equations correctly describes the amount of money he spends?
a) 4E = P + S
b) E = 4P + S
c) E = P + 4S
d) E = P + S
e) E = 4P + 4S
I also need to rearrange the right answer so that S is written in terms of E and P.
