Which expressions can we use to describe how many grams of food Ariane feeds her animals per day?

Answer 1

Answer: The required expression is,

4k + 2d

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

She feeds her kitten k gram of food,

She feeds 2 times in the morning,

⇒ Food fed in morning = 2k,

Also, she feeds 2 times in the evening,

⇒ Food fed in evening = 2k,

So, the total food she gives to her kitten = 2k + 2k = 4k,

Now, She feeds her dog d gram of food,

She feeds 1 times in the morning,

⇒ Food fed in morning = d,

Also, she feeds 2 times in the evening,

⇒ Food fed in evening = d,

So, the total food she gives to her dog = d + d = 2d,

Hence, the total food she feeds to her animal in a day = 4 k + 2 d
