Question

Alicia, Jamar, and Tia collect dimes for charity. Alicia collects (3k+4) dimes. Jamar collects twice as many dimes as Alicia. Tia collects 4(5+6k) dimes. How many dimes do they collect altogether in terms of k?

Answer 1

33k+32

Explanation:

Assign Variables :

Alicia- A

Jamar- J

Tia- T

Write equations :

A = (3k+4)

J= 2(3k+4)

T=4(5+6k)

Simplify equations:

A= 3k+4

J= 6k+8

T= 20+24k

Add:

(3k+4)+(6k+8)+(20+24k)

3k+6k+24k+8+20+4

33k+32

I hope this helps :)
