Juwad picked 30 bags of apples on monday and sold them at his fruit stand for $3.45 each. the following week he picked and sold 26 bags.
a. how much money did juwad earn in the first week?
b. how much money did he earn in the second week?
c. how much did juwad earn selling bags of apples these two weeks?
d. extension: each bag juwad picked holds 15 apples. how many apples did he pick in two weeks? write an expression to represent this problem.

a.

b.

c.

d. Expression:

    He picked 840 apples in two weeks.    

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that he sold each bag for $3.45.

a. Let be "x" the amount of money Juwad earned in the first week. To find its value we need to multiply the price of one bag by the number of bags he sold the first week.

Since he sold 30 bags that week,we get:

b. In the second week Juwad sold 26 bags.

Let be "y" the amount of money Juwad earned in the second week.

We must multiply the price of one bag by 26 bags in order to find the value of "y". This is:

c. The  amount of money he earned selling bags of apples those two weeks is:

d. We already know that he picked 30 bags of apple in the first week and 26 in the second week.

Since each bag holds 15 apples, we can wrie the following expression to represent the number of apples he picked in two weeks:

Evaluating the expression, we get:

He picked 840 apples in two weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  So since it doesn't say anything else after Monday for that week we assume he only got the apples Monday. Now, if you're having trouble figuring out how much he got from selling all 30 try thinking about selling one at a time.  one is 3.45, two is 6.90 and so on.  So you multiply the amount by how many there are.  so 30*3.45.

b.  Second week is similar, 26*3.45

c.   it wants to know how much in total, so just add the two results.  30*3.45 + 26*3.45.

d.  So, each bag has 15.  You can use similar thinking.  one bag is 15, two is 30 and so on.  Writing an expression  means putting a variable in.  let's say x is the number of bags.  To find the number of apples you multiply it by 15.  so 15x.  Now, to find how many apples were gotten int he two weeks we want x to equal the total number of bags, which is 30+26.

If there was something you didn't understand let me know and I will explain it.  

answer: your correct answer is b. d.

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
