Q. On a sunny fall day, Addison and her family go to an orchard to pick apples for their famous apple pies. First, they pick enough Golden Delicious apples to fill a bag. Then, they pick enough Honeycrisp apples to fill another bag. The bag of Honeycrisp apples weighs 2424 pounds. In all, Addison's family picks 4242 pounds of apples.\newlineWhich equation can you use to find the weight ww of the Golden Delicious apples?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) w−24=42w - 24 = 42\newline(B) 24w=4224w = 42\newline(C) w+24=42w + 24 = 42\newline(D) w24=42\frac{w}{24} = 42\newlineSolve this equation for ww to find the weight of the Golden Delicious apples.\newline____ pounds\newline
  1. Define weight of apples: Let's define the weight of the Golden Delicious apples as ww pounds. According to the problem, the total weight of the apples picked by Addison's family is 4242 pounds, which includes the weight of the Golden Delicious apples and the 2424 pounds of Honeycrisp apples. To find the weight of the Golden Delicious apples, we need to add the weight of the Golden Delicious apples (ww) to the weight of the Honeycrisp apples (2424 pounds) to get the total weight (4242 pounds). This can be represented by the equation w+24=42w + 24 = 42.
  2. Find total weight equation: Now, we need to solve the equation w+24=42w + 24 = 42 for ww. To do this, we subtract 2424 from both sides of the equation to isolate ww. \newlinew+24−24=42−24w + 24 - 24 = 42 - 24\newlinew=42−24w = 42 - 24\newlinew=18w = 18
  3. Solve for weight of Golden Delicious apples: We have found that the weight of the Golden Delicious apples is 1818 pounds. This means that the correct equation to use from the given choices is (C) w+24=42w + 24 = 42, and the weight ww of the Golden Delicious apples is 1818 pounds.
