Question

samantha walked t terriers and p poodles on monday. she walked the same number of terriers and poodles each day tuesday and wednesday. write an algebraic expression to represent how many total dogs were walked in this 3 - day period. an algebraic expression for the total number of dogs is \\(\square\\). (use the operation symbols in the math palette as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Find daily dogs

Daily dogs: \( t + p \) (terriers + poodles).

Step2: Multiply by days

3 days, so total: \( 3(t + p) \) or \( 3t + 3p \).

Answer:

\( 3(t + p) \) (or \( 3t + 3p \))
