Rico spent $87.00 to go to the movies on friday night. he spent $25.75 on popcorn and drinks and paid $12.25 for each movie ticket he bought. which equation and solution show how many movie tickets rico purchased on friday night?

Well, you're given the values you need to create an equation. So let's take it step by step. He spent $25.75 on popcorn. Then he paid 12.25 for each movie ticket. We don't know how many movie tickets he bought, so we'll put x as the number of tickets for now. In total he spent, 87 dollars. 

So the equation should look like 25.75 + 12.25x = 87.00

Once you have the equation, you now have to solve for x. So let's get x by itself! 

Subtract both sides by 25.75. So you'll have 12.25x = 61.25. 

Divide both sides by 12.25, and you should get x=5, which means Rico bought 5 movie tickets.

D. A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 2, 4, 8. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 8, 16, 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y must be 4x or equal to x times 4, we just take the entries and see if when multiplied by 4, the x entries equal the y entries.

A.

0 x 4 = 0

2 x 4 = 8

3 x 4 = 12

0, 8, 12   4, 8, 12

B.

1 x 4 = 4

2 x 4 = 8

3 x 4 = 12

4, 8, 12    4, 8, 16

C.

1 x 4 = 4

4 x 4 = 16

4 x 5 = 20

4, 16, 20   4, 8, 12

D.

2 x 4 = 8

4 x 4 = 16

8 x 4 = 32

8, 16, 32 = 8, 16, 32

D is the answer

I'm always happy to help :)
