Question

A baker began the day with 3 loaves of bread. The baker can bake 10 loaves of bread each hour and plans to bake bread for most of the day. Which equation can be used to determine the number of loaves of bread, b, the baker will have at the end of the day given the number of hours, h, he bakes?

(Please help me out, thank you!)

Answer 1

The answer is b=10h+3

Explanation:

B is the number of loaves of bread, so that is the total.

We know he can make 10 loaves an hour, so 10 is multiplied by how many hours he worked. (H)

3 is what he started with.
