Pablo purchased adult and youth TICKETS for the football game. He bought x adult tickets for $74 each and y youth tickets for $35. Write an expression that can be used to show the total cost, C, of all tickets.

C = (74 + 35)x
C = (74 + 35)(x + y)
C = 74y + 35x
C = 74x + 35y

The answer is C= 74x +35y

You should have the appropriate variable with the appropriate price, so the x for adult tickets goes with the prices for adult tickets and y for number of youth tickets to go with youth prices.

Since these numbers are separate and different, you don't want to combine them like A and B do.
