Question

there are 6 large bags and 4 small bags of stones.Each bags hold the same number of stones as the other bags of the same size .how could you represent the total number of the stones with a polynomial​

Answer 1

Explanation:

large bags = x

small bags = y

6x + 4y

Answer 2

Let's represent the number of stones each bag holds by the variable x.

Then the total number of stones in the 6 large bags is 6x, and the total number of stones in the 4 small bags is 4x.

Therefore, the total number of stones can be represented by the polynomial:

6x + 4x = 10x

So the polynomial is 10x, which represents the total number of stones.
