One week, Isabelle bought 2 bags of apples and 3 bags of oranges. The next week, she bought 1 bag of apples and 2 bags of oranges. If a represents the cost of each bag of apples and r represents the cost of each bag of oranges, which expression could Isabelle use to calculate the difference between the amounts she spent each week?
3 a minus r
3 a minus 5 r
(2 a minus 3 r) minus (a minus 2 r)
(2 a + 3 r) minus (a + 2 r)

(2 a + 3 r) minus (a + 2 r)

Step-by-step explanation:

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
