Answer 2

Complete Question:

Mrs. Roberts plants tomatoes and radishes in the areas shown in the model below.

`Tomatoes: 35\ acres`

`Radishes: 28\ acres`

Which expression is equivalent to the sum of the two areas?

Answer:

`A + B = 63`

Explanation:

Given

Represent the area of Tomato with A and area of Radish with B

So:

`A = 35`

`B = 28`

The sum of the two areas is therefore:

`Sum = A + B`

Substitute 35 for A and 28 for B

`Sum = 35 + 28`

`Sum = 63`

So, you either represent the model as:

`Sum = 63`

or

`A + B = 63`
