Two machines at a factory are filling cans of soup. One machine has already filled 180 cans of soup, and fills cans at a rate of 15 per minute. The second machine has already filled 210 cans of soup, and fills cans at a rate of 12 per minute. Write an equation to show when the two machines will have filled the same number of cans of soup. Use x as your variable.(1 point)

12x+210=15x+180
12 x plus 210 equals 15 x plus 180
12x+180=15x+210
12 x plus 180 equals 15 x plus 210
12x−210=15x−180
12 x minus 210 equals 15 x minus 180
210−12x=180−15x

12x + 210 = 15x + 180
Movie Theatre A has a popcorn machine with a 100-gallon capacity, and sells 3 gallons of popcorn per hour. Movie Theatre B has a popcorn machine with a 150-gallon capacity, and sells 5 gallons of popcorn per hour. Write an equation to show when the two popcorn machines will have the same amount of popcorn left. Use x as your variable.(1 point)

150+3x=100+5x
150 plus 3 x equals 100 plus 5 x
100−3x=150−5x
100 minus 3 x equals 150 minus 5 x
3x−100=5x−150
3 x minus 100 equals 5 x minus 150
100+3x=150+5x
Responses
150+3x=100+5x
150 plus 3 x equals 100 plus 5 x
100−3x=150−5x
100 minus 3 x equals 150 minus 5 x
3x−100=5x−150
3 x minus 100 equals 5 x minus 150
100+3x=150+5x
100 - 3x = 150 - 5x
An ice cream shop makes vanilla and chocolate ice cream. The vanilla ice cream machine has a 180-cup capacity, and it sells 20 cups per day. The chocolate ice cream machine has a 140-cup capacity, and it sells 16 cups per day. Write and solve an equation to show when the two machines will have the same amount of ice cream left.(1 point)
