C7g - 3=42
All the other ones give the correct value of g except 7g-3=42 because the value of g is 9.

Answer:

C. 7g – 3 = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

If she pays $7 for each guest and totally paid 42$. Then, she can bring 42/7 = 6 guests with payment. She can also bring 3 guests for free. In total, she can bring 6+3 = 9, g must be 9. When you look at the choices, all the others satisfy this except C 7g – 3 = 42.
