Answer 1

Isabel is buying team photos for her teammates. She initially intends to purchase them for 8 teammates, but 2 have declined. Isabel will buy photos for 6 teammates at $5 each, costing her a total of $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isabel is buying team photos for her teammates. She initially intends to purchase them for 8 teammates, but 2 have declined. Each team photo costs $5. To calculate the total expense for the photos Isabel will actually buy, we must determine the number of teammates interested in receiving a photo, which is 8 minus 2, giving us 6 teammates. We then multiply the number of interested teammates by the cost per photo: 6 teammates times $5 per photo equals $30.

Therefore, the correct expression is 6 x $5 and Isabel will spend $30 on her teammates.
