Answer 1

ANSWER

$B)33\text{ farm animals}$

EXPLANATION

We are given that Tyler had 13 plastic animals and each month he collects 4 more.

Let the number of animals be F and the number of months be m.

This means the number of farm animals after m months is:

$\begin{gathered} F=13+4\cdot m \\ F=13+4m \end{gathered}$

To find the number of farm animals after 5 months, find the value of F when m is 5

$\begin{gathered} F=13+4(5) \\ F=13+20 \\ F=33\text{ animals} \end{gathered}$

That is the answer.
