Answer 1

The choices are missing, but we can find the right expression from the given

The expression that gives the number of glasses were drunk at the picnic is 8 g - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob made pitchers of iced tea for the school picnic

• He made 8 pitchers of iced tea
• Each pitcher filled g glasses
• After the picnic, there were 2 glasses of iced tea left over
• No glasses were  spilled

We need to write an expression gives the number of glasses that were drunk at the picnic

∵ Jacob made 8 pitchers of iced tea

∵ Each pitcher filled g  glasses

- Multiply g by 8 to find the number of glasses that made

  from the 8 pitchers

∴ The total number of glasses = g × 8 = 8 g

∵ There were 2 glasses of iced tea left over

- Subtract 2 from the total number of glasses to find how

   many glasses were drunk at the picnic

∴ The number of glasses were drunk = 8 g - 2

The expression that gives the number of glasses were drunk at the picnic is 8 g - 2
