Answer:
Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given information:
Number of boxes lifted by Caleb = 14
Number of boxes lifted by Sergio = 12
Let c represent the weight of each box Caleb lifted.
It is given that the boxes that Sergio lifted each weighed 10 lb more than the boxes Caleb lifted. It means
The weight of each box Sergio lifted = c+10
The total number of pounds Sergio lifted is the product of number of boxes lifted by Sergio and the weight of each box lifted by Sergio.
[tex]\text{Total number of pounds lifted by Sergio}=12\times (c+10)[/tex]
[tex]\text{Total number of pounds lifted by Sergio}=12(c+10)[/tex]
The required expression is 12(c+10). Therefore, the correct option is C.
An expression to represents the total number of pounds Sergio lifted is 12(c + 10)
Given:
Number of boxes Caleb lifted = 14
Number of boxes Sergio lifted = 12
Weight of boxes Caleb lifted = c lb
Weight of boxes Sergio lifted = (c + 10) lb
Total number of pounds Caleb lifted = Number of boxes Caleb lifted × Weight of boxes Caleb lifted
= 14 × c
= 14c
Total number of pounds Sergio lifted = Number of boxes Sergio lifted × Weight of boxes Sergio lifted
= 12(c + 10)
Therefore, an expression to represents the total number of pounds Sergio lifted is 12(c + 10)
