Given:
Monica saw 25 cardinals and 12 finches
Write an expression for the number of cardinal and finches that Monica saw.
Representation:
Let x = cardinals
y = finches
Since she saw 25 cardinals, and 12 finches, we can represent it as,
x + 25 = number of cardinals
y + 12 = number of finches
Final answer:
x + 25 = number of cardinals
y + 12 = number of finches
