Question

A school purchases boxes of paints for the annual painting competition. The expression below represents the total price for the order including delivery to the school. $11.75x + $20

Answer 1

The expression $11.75x + $20 represents the total price for the order, including delivery to the school.

In this expression, 'x' represents the number of boxes of paints being purchased, and $11.75 represents the cost of each box. The term $11.75x represents the total cost of the boxes of paints based on the number of boxes being purchased.

The term $20 represents the delivery cost to the school, which is added to the total cost of the boxes of paints.

By multiplying the cost per box ($11.75) by the number of boxes (x) and adding the delivery cost ($20), you can calculate the total price for the order, including delivery.
