Question

A volleyball uniform costs $15 for the shirt, $12 for shorts, and $8 for socks. Which expression applies the distributive property and will yield the total cost for 10 uniforms?

Answer 1

Answer:

I think it would be 350$

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so you have to buy 10 shirts so you need to set up your problem which would be 10(12+8+15)

Then you would have to actually distribute which would give you 120+80+150

Finally you just add all of your numbers together which would be 350$

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost of 10 sets of uniform is $350.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Cost of one volleyball = $15

Cost of one pair of shorts = $12

Cost of one pair of socks = $8

We have to find cost for 10 sets of such uniform. This can be done with the help of the distributive property.

The distributive property helps us to multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products.

$a\times (b+c) = (a\times b) + (a\times c)$

Cost for 10 pairs of uniform =

$10\times \text{Cost of 1 set of uniform}\\=10\times (15+12+8)\\=(10\times 15) + (10\times 12) + (10\times 8)\\ = 150 + 120 + 80\\= 350$

Hence, cost of 10 sets of uniform is $350.
