Question

John bought a box of popcorn for $3.50 and three medium drinks. Define a variable and write an expression to represent the total amount he spent. Then find the total amount of one drink cost $ 1.50

Answer 1

Answer: $8.00

Explanation:

Let the cost of medium drinks be represented by d.

Therefore, the expression to represent the total amount that he spent will be:

= 3.50 + 3d

Total amount will then be:

= 3.50 + 3d

= $3.50 + 3($1.50)

= $3.50 + $4.50

= $8.00
