Jess made 3 different stacks of wooden blocks. the first stack was 8 blocks high ,the second stack was 4 blocks higher than the first, and the final was 8 blocks higher than the second. in total, how many blocks did jess use for all 3 stacks

Jess used 40 blocks in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

First stack: 8 blocks

Second stack: First stack + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12 blocks

Third stack: Second stack + 8 = 12 + 8 = 20 blocks

Total number of blocks: First stack + Second stack + Third stack = 8 + 12 + 20 = 40 blocks

yes

step-by-step explanation:

so of course you want to start by plugging the 5 in which goes to 7(5)+3(5)=50 because 7*5=35 and 3*5=15 and then add them together, then plug in the 5 to the other equation as well 9(5)+5=50 because 9*5= 45 and then add 5 and so yes they are equivalent.
