You forgot to post the answer choices.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "However, the answer should be something like 2A+3B or C = 2A+3B\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Explanation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A = number of model A trucks
\n" ); document.write( "2*A = total capacity of just the model A trucks
\n" ); document.write( "Note: 2A is the same as 2*A so let's just write 2A from now on\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "B = number of model B trucks
\n" ); document.write( "3*B = total capacity of just the model B trucks
\n" ); document.write( "Note: similar to the last note above, 3*B = 3B so let's write 3B from now on\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We have 2A tons from the model A trucks and 3B tons from the model B trucks.
\n" ); document.write( "Add up these expressions to get 2A+3B which is the total capacity of all the trucks (both models included).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If C is the total capacity, then we can say
\n" ); document.write( "C = 2A+3B
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
