1. The grocery store was selling variety bags of apples. Each bag contained x Braeburn apples, y Granny Smith apples, and z Honeycrisp apples. Zahra bought 2 bags of apples. For each expression, identify whether it can be used to determine the total number of apples Zahra bought. Explain your answer.
(a) 2 + x + y + z
(b) 2x + 2y + 2z
(c) 2(xyz)
(d) x + x + y + y + z + z
(e) 2(x + y + z)
(f) x + y + z/2

Respuesta :


(b) 2x + 2y + 2z

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

x = Braeburn apples
y = Granny apples
z = Honeycrisp apple
It says that
Zahra bought two bags of each kind to make this faster it would be (b) 2x + 2y + 2z
She would not have bought all three kinds, so there are various expressions that could work 2x 2y 2z x + y x + z y + z

Answer:

(b) [tex]2x+2y+2z[/tex]

(d) [tex]x+x+y+y+z+z[/tex]

(e) [tex]2(x+y+z)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that each bag at grocery store contained x Braeburn apples, y Granny Smith apples, and z Honeycrisp apples.

To total number of apples in each bag would be [tex]x+y+z[/tex].

We have been given that Zahra bought 2 bags of apples. So number of pples Zahra will have would be [tex]2(x+y+z)[/tex]

Using distributive property, we will get:

[tex]2(x+y+z)=2x+2y+2z[/tex]

We can rewrite our expression as:

[tex]2x+2y+2z=x+x+y+y+z+z[/tex]

Therefore, option 'b', 'd' and 'e' are correct choices.
