Jeff has two sticker-printing machines. Each machine can print 42 stickers per minute. On day 1, only the first machine was used, and it printed 89 stickers. On the following day, the first machine printed for x minutes and the second machine printed for y minutes

OpenStudy (moneybaby980):

Which expression shows the total number of stickers printed by both machines during these two days? 131x + 42y 42 + 89x + y 89 + 42x + 42y 89x + 84y

Mehek (mehek14):

ok 42 per minute that tells us 42x

OpenStudy (moneybaby980):

so B

Mehek (mehek14):

no wait the variable x is used for the first machine

Mehek (mehek14):

and it says both can print 42 per minute

OpenStudy (moneybaby980):

so what do I do

Mehek (mehek14):

the first machine printed 89 the first day and we know 42 per minute

Mehek (mehek14):

so no variable for that

Mehek (mehek14):

leave 89 by itself

OpenStudy (moneybaby980):

ok

Mehek (mehek14):

machine one: 42x machine two: 42y they print the same amount but have different variables for the different machines

OpenStudy (moneybaby980):

so it will be C

Mehek (mehek14):
