Question

A company rents out 15 food booths and 23 game booths at the county fair. The fee for a food booth is $125 plus $7 per day. The fee for a game booth is $65 plus $5 per day. The fair lasts for d days, and all the booths are rented for the entire time. Enter a simplified expression for the amount, in dollars, that the company is paid.

Answer 1

3,370 + 220d

Explanation:

Food booth = 15

Game booth = 23

The fair lasts for d days

Cost of a food booth = 125 + 7d

Total cost of food booth = 15(125 + 7d)

= 1875 + 105d

Cost of a game booth = 65 + 5d

Total cost of game booth = 23(65 + 5d)

= 1495 + 115d

Total amount paid to the company = Total cost of food booth + Total cost of game booth

= (1875 + 105d) + (1495 + 115d)

= 1875 + 105d + 1495 + 115d

= 3,370 + 220d
