Answer:

  C. 2c+12

Step-by-step explanation:

"12 more than 2 times the number of cats" means "12 + 2c", where c is the number of cats.

To get 2 times, we multiply by 2. To get 12 more, we add 12.

If Victor were to put apples in bags so that there were 2 kg in each, then he would use 9 more bags than if he were to place 3 k
Cerrena [4.2K]
Let the number of bags that he would have been used to put 3 kg of apples be x. Thus the number of bags that would be used to put 2kgs will therefore be (x+9), hence the total number of kgs the bags will hold will be given by:
3*x=3x kgs
2(x+9)=(2x+18) kgs
since the total weights are the same then:
2x+18=3x
hence
18=3x-2x
18=x
thus the number of bags required to put 3 kgs of apples will be 18. Thus the total Kgs of apples was:
3x
=3*18
=54 kgs
