Answer 1

Answer:

The total cost of ordering 5 tickets is $102.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tickets to a science museum cost $19.95 each.

Let the number of tickets ordered be represented by = x

There is also a $3 charge for each order, no matter how many tickets are ordered.

So, the expression for the cost (in dollars) of ordering tickets is :

$19.95x+3$

And the total cost if you order 5 tickets, we will put x = 5

$19.95(5)+3$

= $102.75

Answer 2

$19.95x +$3
x stands for number of tickets purchased.
$19.95(5) + $3
$99.75 + $3
$102.75 for 5 tickets
