Question

Mr. and Mrs. Smith's children all pay different sports. they want to buy a combination of soccer traning sets, which each cost $149, volleyball training set, which each cost $127, and football training set which each cost $275. let S represent number of soccer sets, V represent number of volleyball sets and F represent the number of football sets. which expression represents the total amount of money the Smiths will spend, before sales tax, based on the number of sports sets they buy?

A. 149+127+275

B. (149+127+275)(s+v+f)

C. 149s+127v+275f

D. s+v+f

Answer 1

The total amount of money the Smiths will spend will depend on the number of soccer sets, volleyball sets, and football sets they buy. For each set, the cost is $149 for soccer, $127 for volleyball, and $275 for football.

To calculate the total amount spent, you would need to multiply the number of sets of each type by their respective costs and then add them together.

For soccer sets: $149 * S
For volleyball sets: $127 * V
For football sets: $275 * F

Adding them together gives the expression: 149S + 127V + 275F

Therefore, the answer is option C. 149S + 127V + 275F.
