Emma took 35 pictures of flowers on a nature walk and an additional 3 pictures of each bird she saw. She took a total of 83 pictures. Which equation can be used to find the number of birds, [tex]x[/tex], that Emma saw on her walk?
A. [tex]35x + 3x = 83[/tex] B. [tex]35 + 3 = 83x[/tex] C. [tex]35x + 3 = 83[/tex] D. [tex]35 + 3x = 83[/tex]
Answer :
35 + 3x = 83 because she took 3 pictures of EACH bird so you would multiply the amount of pictures (3) with the amount of birds then add that to the amount of flowers (35) and get the amount of pictures (83).
