Question
The cost to see a movie is $10 for adults and $6 for children. The total cost is 10x+6y
where x
is the number of adults and y
is the number of children seeing a movie. What is the total cost if 3 adults and 5 children see a movie together? (1 point)
The total cost is given by the expression 10x + 6y, where x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
If 3 adults and 5 children see a movie together, we can substitute x = 3 and y = 5 into the expression for the total cost:
Total cost = 10(3) + 6(5)
= 30 + 30
= 60
Therefore, the total cost if 3 adults and 5 children see a movie together is $60.
