Sample Answer: I am given a number of cans, which is y, and I need to find the number of days, which is x. To do this, I would substitute 2600 for y, to get 2600 = 235x + 15. Solving for x, I would get x = 11. Thus, it would take 11 days to collect 2600 cans. Select all the information that you included in your response.Substitute 2600 for y.Solve the equation for x.2600 = 235 x + 15.x = 11 .It would take 11 days to collect 2600 cans.
Answer
A
Substitute 2600 for y.
B

C
2600 = 235 x + 15.
D
x = 11 .
E
It would take 11 days to collect 2600 cans.
Explanation
The sample response includes every listed item. It says to substitute 2600 for y, shows the equation 2600 = 235x + 15, and says to solve for x. Solving gives x = (2600 − 15) ÷ 235 = 11, so it concludes that it would take 11 days to collect 2600 cans.
