Question

Raul has 5 boxes of golf balls. Each box contains y golf balls. His father gives him another 8 golf balls.

Answer 1

In terms of y, Raul has g=5y+8. G is the total amount of golf balls. If y=4 he has 28 golf balls

Answer 2

Answer:

(A)

Let y represents the golf balls.

Since Raul has 5 boxes of golf balls and his father gives him another 8 golf balls.

⇒ Total number of golf ball Raul has = 5y + 8            ......[1]

(B)

Given: y =4;

Substitute in [1] we get;

Number of golf ball Raul has = 5(4)+8 = 20 + 8 = 28

Therefore, 28 golf balls does Raul have altogether
