Respuesta :

Answer:

79 toys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'c' represent Calvin's candy canes

Let 'm' represent Melvin's candy canes

11c + 8m

= 11(5) + 8(3)

= 55 + 24

= 79 toys

Answer: There are 79 toys they can build.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of candy canes Candy eats be 'c'.

Number of candy canes Melvin eats be 'm'.

So, the number of toys they build is given by

[tex]11c+8m[/tex]

Number of candy canes eat by Calvin = 5

Number of candy canes eaten by Melvin = 3

So, the total number of toys they build  is given by

[tex]11c+8m\\\\=11\times 5+8\times 3\\\\=55+24\\\\=79[/tex]

Hence, there are 79 toys they can build.
