James goes to a hockey game with $12. He wants to buy snacks. King size candy bars cost $2 each and nachos cost $3 . Right and equation to find the amount of candy and nachos that James can buy. 
With C being number of candy bars, and N being the number of nachos, the EQUATION you want is: highlight_green%282C+%2B+3N+=+12%29

FYI Pay no attention to ANYONE who gives you an inequality instead of an EQUATION. Those people's primary JOB is to lead you astray.

By the way, it's not "right and," but "write an," instead!
