A slush drink machine fills 1440 cups in 24 hours.

a. Write and solve an equation to find the number c of cups each symbol represents.

The equation is
=1440.

The solution is c=
cups.

Question 2
b. To lower costs, you replace the cups with paper cones that hold 20% less. Select the equation you can use to find the number n of paper cones that the machine can fill in 24 hours. Then solve the equation.

n0.2=1440

n0.8=1440

0.2n=1440

0.8n=1440
