Question

"The number of blue markers in a drawer is 4 more than twice the number of red markers."

Write an expression for the total number of markers in the drawer.

Use only the variable r, which will represent the number of red markers

Answer 1

Answer: 3r + 4

Explanation:

Answer 2

b=2r+4

Explanation:

I don't think that you can do this using only one variable because there are two unknown amounts. Blue (b) is Red (r) multiplied by 2 plus 4 more, so the expression is b=2r+4.
