Mars has m moons. The number of moons of Pluto is one more than twice the number of moons of Mars. The number of moons of Neptune is one less than 3 times the number of moons of Pluto. Write and interpret a simplified expression that represents the number of moons of Neptune (I’m just asking to answer because I didn’t see any right ones when I was scrolling through them)

Answer :

Answer:

neptune = 6m+2

Step-by-step explanation:

mars has 'm' moons

pluto has one more than twice that of mars, = 2m+1

neptune is one less than thrice of pluto

= 3(2m+1) -1

= 6m+3 -1

= 6m+2
