Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming that the number of ingredients per pie is constant, we can write an expression for the total number of ingredients and pies baked in the two years as:

Total number of ingredients = (129 x ingredients per pie) + (b x ingredients per pie)

Total number of pies baked = 129 + b

So, if we let "i" represent the number of ingredients per pie, we can write the expression as:

Total number of ingredients = (129 x i) + (b x i)

Total number of pies baked = 129 + b

Note that without knowing the value of "i," we cannot simplify this expression any further.
