Question, write an expression representing the supplies needed. 1. She needs one mouse for each snake, plus two extra mice. How many mice are needed if the number of the snakesas: a. 10 b. 6 C. X

a. 12 mice

b. 8 mice

c. (X + 2) mice

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that one mouse is required for each snake, this implies that a snake is accompanied by a mouse. But two extra mice are included, let the number of snake be represented by N and number of mice be represented by L.

Supply needed = N + L + 2

                          = 2N + 2      (∵ N = L)

So that:

Number of mice needed = N + 2

a. When the number of snake is 10, the number of mice needed would be:

Number of mice needed = 10 + 2

                         = 12

Number of mice needed is 12.

b. When the number of snake is 6, the number of mice needed would be:

Number of mice needed = 6 + 2

                         = 8

Number of mice needed is 8.

c. When the number of snake is X, the number of mice needed would be:

Number of mice needed = X + 2

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral
