Answer:

6x+20 or 2(3x+10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Six friends went to a basketball game and four people paid $5 extra for a t-shirt. To find the total cost, multiply 6 by x and 4 by 5 this add them together:

6*x+4*5

6x+20, If needed you can factor this expression to:

2(3x+10)

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The expression which represents the total cost is given by:

2(3x+10)

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

six friends went to a basketball game.

The price of admission per person was $x.

This means that total cost of admission will be: $ 6x

Also, four of the friends paid an extra $5 each for a souvenir t-shirt.

This means that the extra amount that is paid is: 4×5=20

Hence, the total cost is given by:

Total cost=Total cost of admission+Extra cost

i.e.

Total cost= 6x+20

Now, we take out common 2 from both the terms since it is the common multiple of both the terms.

i.e.

Total cost= 2(3x+10)
