Terry is an up-and-coming florist who specializes in weddings. He uses 5 roses, 3 daisies, and 4 bundles of green filler to make one bouquet. If r is the cost of a rose, d is the cost of a daisy, and f is the cost of a bundle of green filler, which expression represents the cost for making 75 bouquets?

Answer:

Expression representing the cost for making 75 bouquets = 375 r + 225 d+ 300 f

Explanation:

He uses 5 roses, 3 daisies, and 4 bundles of green filler to make one bouquet.

Number of roses per bouquet = 5

Number of daisies per bouquet = 3

Number of bundles of green filler per bouquet = 4

If r is the cost of a rose, d is the cost of a daisy, and f is the cost of a bundle of green filler.

Cost per bouquet = 5 r + 3 d + 4 f

We need to find cost for 75 bouquets

Cost for 75 bouquet = 75(5 r + 3 d + 4 f) = 375 r + 225 d+ 300 f

Expression representing the cost for making 75 bouquets = 375 r + 225 d+ 300 f
