Answer:

The expression which represents the total cost is given by : C = 125·x + 50

Explanation:

The murphys are on vacation and want to go on a helicopter tour

The tour itself costs $125 per person.

Let the number of murphys who went on vacation be x

So, Total cost of tour for x murphys = 125 × x

⇒ Total cost of tour for x murphys = $ 125·x

Also, They have to pay a fuel fee of $50

Let total cost of the tour be C

So, The expression which represents the total cost is given by : C = 125·x + 50
