Stephanie planted a home garden. she planted 2 rows of tomatoes with 5 tomato plants in each row. she also planted squash in rows of 7 plants each. if x represents the number of rows of squash she planted, which of the following equations can be used to find the total number of plants stephanie planted in her home garden? a. y = 7x + 10 b. y = 7x + 7 c. y = 8x + 7 d. y = 15x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression we have to find must include the total number of plants.

According to the problem, Stephanie has 2 rows of tomatoes with 5 tomatoes each, that means she has 10 tomato plants, so the expression must have 10 as a term.

You can see already that the only option that has 10 as a term is option A. Therefore, that's the right answer.

In addition, the other plant is represents by 7x, because the problem states that she planted squash in rows of 7 plants, where x expresses rows.
