The table shows the cost, c, of buying each number of boxes, b, of cookies. Write an equation that models this situation. A) b = 3c B) c = 3b C) b = 8c D) c = 8b
Each box of cookies is $3 since 4 x 3 =12, 6 x 3 = 18, and 9 x 3 = 27. So we want to multiply the number of boxes, b, by 3 to get the cost, c. The correct equation is c = 3b.
