Answer 1

a) 5m

b) $26.25

Explanation:

You and your 4 friends plane a surprise party. Each of you contributed the same amount of money "m" for food.

a) Write an algebraic expression for the total amount of money contributed for money?

Let the total Amount of money each person contributed be = m

Since each person contributed the same amount , and there are 5 people(you and 4 friends)

The total amount of money contributed = 5 × m

= 5m

b) Evaluate you expression if each person get $5.25

From the answer in question a, we have algebraic expression = 5m

m = $5.25

Total cost = 5 × $5.25

= $26.25
