Answer:
C = 30 - 2t
4 = 30 - 2(13)
Explanation:
Juan was given a box of assorted chocolates for his birthday. Each night, Juan treated himself to some chocolates. Juan ate 2 chocolates each night and after
13 nights, there were 4 chocolates remaining in the box. Write an equation for C, in terms of t, representing the number Of chocolates remaining in the box
t days after Juan's birthday.
C = Number of chocolate remaining
t = days after Juan's birthday
Chocolate remaining = 4
Chocolate eaten for 13 nights = 13 × 2
= 26
Chocolate given to Juan = chocolate remaining + chocolate eaten for 13 night
= 4 + 26
= 30 chocolate
C in terms of t representing the number Of chocolates remaining in the box t days after Juan's birthday.
C = 30 - 2t
4 = 30 - 2(13)
Where,
4 = Number of chocolate remaining
30 = Total chocolate
2 = chocolate eaten each night
13 = number of nights
