Amy wants to buy soda AND pizza for her Halloween party. She has $45 to spend. One case of soda costs $4, and one pizza costs $8. Write an equation that could be used to find a valid combination for as many cases of soda, x, and pizzas, y, as she can afford.

• 8x + 4y = 45

• 4x - 8y = 45

• 12xy = 45

• 4x + 8y = 45
