Question

A game club offers a special game to play. The tickets cost $5 for members and $10 for nonmembers. Write an expression to find the total cost of 6 member tickets and 4 nonmember tickets.

(6 + 5) + (4 + 10)
(6 * 5) + (4 * 10)
(4 * 5) + (6 * 10)
(6 + 5) * (4 + 10)

Answer 1

B. (6 * 5) + (4 * 10)


If there are six members that each cost five dollars, then you know a part of the equation is (6 * 5)

Likewise, if there are four non members that each spend ten dollars on tickets, the other part of the equation should be (4 * 10)

Then, to get the total amount of money spent, you would need to add these two mathematical statements together:


(6 * 5) + (4 * 10) is your answer
