Q. Lucy needs to make bb batches of blueberry scones this weekend for her family's brunch party. She needs 22 cartons of blueberries for each batch, and each carton costs $4\$4.\newlinePick all the expressions that represent how much Lucy will spend on blueberries.\newlineMulti-select Choices:\newline(A) 4(2b)4(2b)\newline(B) 2+4b2 + 4b\newline(C) 4(b2)4(b^2)\newline(D) 8b8b
  1. Calculate cartons needed: Calculate the total number of cartons needed for bb batches, knowing each batch requires 22 cartons.\newlineTotal cartons = 22 cartons/batch ×b\times b batches = 2b2b cartons.
  2. Calculate total cost: Calculate the total cost for the blueberries, knowing each carton costs $4\$4.\newlineTotal cost = $4/carton×2bcartons=$8b\$4/\text{carton} \times 2b \text{cartons} = \$8b.
  3. Match total cost: Match the calculated total cost with the provided choices. The expression that matches $8b\$8b is (D) 8b8b.
