Leslie spent $43.50 to purchase a combination of drinks, sandwiches, and chips for herself and her friends. A drink costs $1.75, a sandwich costs $6.25, and chips cost $1.50. Identify the linear equation that represents this situation. 1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.503
1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.50
9.50x = 43.50
1.75x + 6.25 − 1.25z = 43.50

your answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps and it is right

1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.50

Step-by-step explanation:

It is the only equation that matches the problem. You have to do each number in the problem separate, so you can eliminate 9.50x = 43.50. 1.25 is not a number in the problem and neither is 43.503 so you can eliminate both 1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.503 and 1.75x + 6.25 − 1.25z = 43.50. That leaves you with 1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.50, which has all the proper format and numbers. Therefore, the answer is 1.75 + 6.25y + 1.50z = 43.50.
