Wendy ice tea


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 277 People


Wendy bought the lemonade and iced tea for the school picnic. Since more people like lemonade than iced tea, she brought 2 gallons of lemonade for every 10 people. She also brought 5 gallons of iced tea for people who don't like lemonade.
Write an algebraic expression to show how many gallons Wendy would need to bring. Let n represent the number of groups of ten people.

Write an algebraic expression to show the total number of gallons Wendy would need to bring.
Let n represent the number of groups of ten people.
:
total = 2 gal per n groups of 10 + 5 gal of tea
f(n) = 2n + 5

Hope this helps.
