Gretchen and her friend Hayley bought three bags of apples and three bunches of bananas from the fruit vendor. Gretchen and Hayley want to find the total number of pieces of fruit that they bought. Gretchen thinks she should multiply 3 by the number of apples in each bag, x, and add it to 3 times the number of bananas in each bunch, y, to find the total number of pieces of fruit. Hayley thinks Gretchen should add the number of apples in each bag, x, to the number of bananas in each bunch, y, and then multiply that sum by 3. Write an expression based on Gretchen’s method to find the total number of pieces of fruit.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
