Question

Janelle is in charge of bringing in dry erase markers for everyone in her math group to use to work on a project. She brings 3 markers for each person in her group and 5 extra markers for everyone to share. If Janelle brings in 23 markers in all, which equation represents the information?

Answer 1

23 = 3(6) + 5

Explanation:

23 = 3(6) + 5

y = mx + b

y = 3x + b

y is the total markers.

x is the number of people in the group.

23 = 3(6) + 5

23 = 18 + 5

23 = 23
