Answer
t = 3n
Step-by-step explanation:
n and t are proportional so you know they will be on the opposite ends of the equal sign. Then you know that the items are purchased at the constant price of $3. That means you do the number of items times 3 to get the total cost.

Answer:
3d + 4p = $37.25
5d + 2p = $38.75
Actual Answer:
Bag of popcorn is $5
A drink is $5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let drinks = d
Let popcorn = p
Noah: 3d + 4p = $37.25
Other: 5d + 2p = $38.75
Choose a variable to eliminate (We'll choose p)
3d + 4p = $37.25
(5d + 2p = $38.75) -2
Distribute
-10d - 4p = -77.5
The -4p cancels out the 4p, then we combine
-7d = -40.25
Divide both sides by -7
-7d/-7 = -40.25/-7
d = 5.75
Back to 3d + 4p = $37.25
Substitute d with 5.75
3(5.75) + 4p = $37.25
17.25 + 4p = 37.25
Move the constant to the other side
17.25 + 4p = 37.25
-17.25 -17.25
4p = 20
Divide both sides by 4
4p/4 = 20/4
p = 5
