Let xbe the number of cups of lemonade and y be the number of orange drinks. Write anyequation in standard form for the relationship above.

Respuesta :

Let x be the number of cups of lemonade sold, and y the number of cups of orange drinks sold, then we can set the following equation:

[tex]6(\frac{x}{2})+9(\frac{y}{3})=240.[/tex]

Now, recall that the standard form of a linear equation is:

[tex]Ax+By=C,[/tex]

Where, A≥0, B and C are integers.

Simplifying the first equation, we get:

[tex]3x+3y=240.[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]3x+3y=240.[/tex]
