Question

Xander goes to the movies with his family. Each family member buys a ticket and two boxes of popcorn. If these are five members of his family,let t represent the cost of a ticket and p represent tye cost of a box of popcorn. Write two different expressions that represents the total amount his family spent.

Answer 1

Members in his family = 5
Then,
Boxes of popcorn for each member = 2
Boxes of popcorn for 5 members = 2 x 5 = 10

Total Spent = (5t + 10p)___(1st Expression)

Now, For 2nd Expression,

Money spent on each member = (t+2p)
Money spent on 5 members = 5×(t+2p)

2nd Expression will be 5(t+2p).
