Question

The science club went on a two-day field trip. The first day the entire group paid $50 for transportation plus $15 per individual ticket to the planetarium. The second day the entire group paid $75 for transportation plus $12 per individual ticket to the geology museum. Write an expression to represent the total cost for two days for the n members of the club.

Answer 1

Answer:

$50 + 15n = x (x is total cost for the 1st day, n is the number of members in the group)

$75 + 12n = y (y is total cost for the 2nd day)

Now,

total cost for two days = x + y = $50 + 15n + $75 + 12n

So the required equation is,

x + y = $125 + 27n

I Hope my answer is correct and u understand it.
