Hope that helped. If you don't understand why i can try to explain it to you just say what u don't get

Answer:

y = 4 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of apples eaten by monkey everyday = 4,

Also, it eats two bananas for every banana that Tommy eats.,

I.e. if x represents the number of bananas Tommy eats,

The number of bananas eaten by monkey = 2x

So, the total number of fruits eaten by monkey = 4 + 2x

If y represents the total number of pieces of fruit the monkey eats,

⇒ y = 4 + 2x

Which is the required equation.
