Question

lamar bought v vanilla cupcakes and 8 chocolate cupcakes for the party write an expression that shows how many cupcakes lamar bought in all

Answer 1

8 + v

Explanation:

assuming Lamar didn't buy any other cupcakes outside of the chocolate and vanilla ones mentioned, the expression that gives you the total amount of cupcakes bought for the party is 8 + v. since you don't know the number of vanilla cupcakes Lamar bought, it is represented as the variable v in this problem. Then just add 8 and the variable v together. hope this helped :]
