Please help no one is answering and I cannot figure this out I just wasted 10 points on some moron who didn't even explain Jamiya and Samantha went to the grocery store and purchased a bag of 32 apples. Let x represent Jamiya’s portion of the apples in Y represent Samantha‘s portion of the apples. Which equation can be used to represent the possible ways that Jamiya and Samantha can split the 32 apples?

a) xy = 38
b) x – y = 38
c) y = x + 38
d) x + y = 38

d) x+y = 38

please give me brainliest :)

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
