During harvesting season at a coffee plantation in Puerto Rico, hand pickers collect about
165
pounds of coffee cherries per day. The coffee harvester machine collects about
18,000
pounds of coffee cherries per day. Only
20
percent of the coffee cherry’s weight is the actual coffee bean.

Let
h
represent the number of days the hand pickers work and
m
represent the number of days the harvester machine is used. Which of the following algebraic expressions can be used to estimate the amount of coffee beans collected, in pounds, in the coffee plantation during this harvesting season?

A.0.2(165h+18,000m)

B.165h+0.2(18,000m)

C.165h+18,000m20

D.165.2h+18,000.2m
