Ben, Cam, and Justin are lumberjacks. The number of trees they chop down is given by b+2c+3j, where b is the number of hours Ben spends chopping, c is the number of hours Cam spends chopping, and j is the number of hours Justin spends chopping. How many trees do they chop down after Ben spends 8 hours chopping, Cam spends 3 hours chopping, and Justin spends 4 hours chopping?

Respuesta :

Substitute the values into the equation...
b = 8 so 8+2c+3j
c = 3 if 8+2(3)+3j or 8+6+3j
j = 4 8+6+3(4) or 8+6+12
Add this all together and you get...
26 trees

Answer: There are 26 trees which they chop down .

Explanation:

Since we have given that

the number of trees they chop down is given by

[tex]b+2c+3j[/tex]

Where 'b' denotes number of hours Ben spends chopping,

'c' denotes number of hours Cam spends chopping,

'j' denotes number of hours Justin spends chopping.

Now, we have also given that,

Number of hours Ben spends chopping = 8

Number of hours Cam spends chopping = 3

Number of hours Justin spends chopping = 4

Now, we put the value of all these variable in the above expression ,we'll get

[tex]8+2\times 3+3\times 4=8+6+12=26[/tex]

Hence, there are 26 trees which they chop down .
