Question

A school band has 75 members. The band enters a band competition at a rival school. There is a $200 entrance fee for each band plus a $25 entrance fee for each drill team. The competition has a total of 32 bands and 25 drill teams. Write an expression for the total amount of money collected from entrance fees. *

Answer 1

Answer:

Total amount of money=200x+25y, where x is the number of bands and y is the number of drill teams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the total amount of money collected from entrance fees would be equal to the entrance fee for each band for the number of bands plus the entrance fee for each drill team for the number of drill teams:

Total amount of money=200x+25y, where x is the number of bands and y is the number of drill teams.

Total amount of money=200(32)+25(25)

Total amount of money=6400+625

Total amount of money=7025
