A box of candies at the movie theater cost $4.50 in a drink cost dollars X the cost of the candy and drinks together is $6.75 complete install the equation that represents the cost of a drink

Answer 1

Let the cost of the drink be represented by the variable D.

The cost of the candy is given as $4.50, so the equation representing the cost of candy is 4.50.

The total cost of candy and drink together is given as $6.75.

So, the equation representing the cost of candy and drink together is:

Candy cost + Drink cost = Total cost
4.50 + D = 6.75

Therefore, the equation that represents the cost of a drink is D = 6.75 - 4.50 = 2.25.
