Standard Form of a Line

Question 5 • AZ-Algebra 1A (MA101)

Art and his friends spent $62 at the movies. Admission tickets cost $12 apiece, and a bucket of popcorn costs $7. Which equation written in standard form represents the number of tickets bought, t, and the number of buckets of popcorn bought, p?

Answer
A
12p + 7t = 62
B
7p + 12t = 62
C
12p = 62 – 7t
D
7p = 62 – 12t

Explanation

Tickets cost $12 each, so t tickets cost 12t dollars. Popcorn costs $7 per bucket, so p buckets cost 7p dollars. Together they cost $62, giving 7p + 12t = 62, which is choice B.
