Question

Micah and Crystal purchase two movie tickets. Tickets costs $8.50 each, drinks cost $3.50 each, and boxes of candy cost $3.00 each. use an algebraic expression to describe how much they spend based on the number of tickets, drinks and boxes of candy they buy.

Answer 1

2t+2d+2c=30

2(8.50)+2(3.50)+2(3.00)=$30

t representing tickets d representing drinks c representing candy

the answer really depends on how much of each item they buy

if they bought more than 2 of each just change the 2 to the number of items bought
