Question

Fiona is serving iced tea and lemonade at a picnic. She has only 44 cups in which to serve the drinks. If x represents the number of glasses of iced tea and y represents the number of glasses of lemonade, which equation represents the number of glasses of iced tea she can serve?

Answer 1

44=x+y
44≥X
44≥Y
There is a nother equal I believe

Answer 2

Answer: The required equation is,

x = 44 - y

Explanation:

Since, x represents the number of glasses of iced tea and y represents the number of glasses of lemonade served by Fiona,

Thus, the total serving cups = x + y

According to the question,

Total serving cups = 44,

⇒ x + y = 44

⇒ x = 44 - y

Hence, the equation that represents the number of glasses of iced tea she can serve is,

x = 44 - y
