Respuesta :
Answer: Sarah found 10 shark teeth(3 + 7 = 10).
John found 5 shark teeth(10/2 = 5).
The total money they earned was $5 x 15 = $75.
Explanation;
Given that:
- $5 per shark tooth
- 15 total collected shark teeth
5 x 15 = 75, therefore the total money Sarah and John earned was $75.
The few sentences to end Sarah's story are: Sarah found 10 shark teeth for $50. John found 5 shark teeth for $25. They got $75 from their neighbor in total.
Answer:
Sarah’s neighbor offers to pay her $5 for every shark tooth she finds on the beach. After collecting only three shark’s teeth, Sarah decides to share the opportunity with her friend John. Sarah can find shark teeth twice as fast as John, but she can earn even more money with his help.
Sarah can use the expression 5(2j + 3 + j) to represent the amount of money they can earn.
Part 1: Writing Expressions
Q1. Write an expression that looks like Sarah’s expression: 5(2j + 3 + j). Replace the coefficients so that your expression is not equivalent. You may use any number that you choose to replace the coefficients. Be sure to leave the variables the same. For example, 8(3j + 7 + 3j) looks like Sarah’s expression but is not equivalent.
25(10j + 18 + 5j)
