8. is pretty simple to solve, but the math teachers just put it in a weird way. If not already, I'd suggest trying to do them on your own or asking your math teacher so you are able to understand. Anyways.....
You take the total cost, minus the price we already know for the pizza.
(21.39 - 12.99) =
that leaves 8.4 but since this is math we know the .4 is equal to .40.
leaving us with $8.40 divided by $2.10,
8.40 / 2.10 = 4.
Therefore, four bottles are priced at $2.10 with $12.99 for the pizza being $21.39.
-------------
The option you chose would be wrong, if (b) is for the number of bottles, it needs to be by $2.10 and not by the pizza amount of $12.99 because we are needing the answer of how many bottles Raymond can get. Now we have to find the answer.
Answer options:
A) 2.10b + 12.99 = 21.39; 4 bottles
A would be the correct answer because the 'b' is in the right spot because 2.10 is being priced for each bottle, it's also adding the $12.99 for the pizza. In this problem, B would equal 4. (2.10 x 4) + 12.99 = 21.39 ; 4 bottles
B) 2.10 + 12.99b = 21.39; 4 bottles
B is not accurate because B is placed by the pizza amount.
C) 2.19c = 21.39 + 12.99; 6 bottles
C is incorrect because the variable given was B, whereas in this problem is replaced with 'c'.
D) 21.39 - 2.10b = 12.99; 16 bottles
D would be 16 x 2.10 = 33.60 which is over what the amount being spent is.

#8 Raymond buys bottles of water at $2.10 each and a large pizza at $12.99. The total cost was $21.39. How many bottles of water (b) did he buy?
A) 2.10b + 12.99 = 21.39; 4 bottles
B) 2.10 + 12.99b = 21.39; 4 bottles*
C) 2.19c = 21.39 + 12.99; 6 bottles
D) 21.39 - 2.10b = 12.99; 16 bottles
The areas with the ( * ) is the answers that I chooes please help me this is due next week!!!!

(also I'm not saying you didn't try on your own, I'd just say maybe go through it a few more times to see if your answer makes sense, I promise I'm not trying to be rude.)
5) I'm not sure about this one, because I don't know how it's getting solved.
----------------------------------
6) I'm unsure if we are supposed to be adding the 7 and the 2n. If the answer was four, and if you are adding the 7 and the 2n then the remainder at the end is -1. Let's go through it:
-4n + 7 2n = 1
-4 x 4 + 7 + 2 x 4 = 1
in an easier way to solve we'll do this
( -4 x 4 ) + 7 (2 x 4) = 1
(-16 + 7 )+ 8 = 1
-9 + 8 = 1 ?
is not correct because it would be -1 and not 1.
The correct answer would be 3.
(-4 x 3) + 7 (2 x 3) = 1
(-12 + 7) + 6 = 1
-5 + 6 = 1
----------------------------------
7) 4(y - 4) = 8
7 would be 6 because 6-4 is 2. When four is multiplied by two it would be 8.

So are these correct sir?
because this is 30% of my grade
