Answer 1

Simplified expression that represents the cost of renting 6 scooters is 18 j +30

Explanation:

Given data:

The cost of renting of a scooter is represented by 3j +5

So, from that, we can say in general,

The cost of renting of n scooters is represented by

`n *(3 j+5)`

But according to given, the value of n is 6. i.e. to find the cost for six number of scooters. We can calculate now as follows

So, the cost of renting of a scooter is represented by

`6 *(3 j+5)=18 j+30`
