Select the correct expression

Question

Alex and Leandro purchase two movie tickets cost $6.50 a drink cost $5.50 and a bag of popcorn cost $6.00

13 + 5.50d + 6p

6.50 + 5.50 + 6

6.50 + d + p

6.50 + 5.50d + 6p

Answer 1

To find the total cost of Alex and Leandro's purchases, we need to consider the cost of the movie tickets, drinks, and bags of popcorn.

• The cost of the two movie tickets is \(6.50 \times 2 = 13.00\).
• Let \(d\) represent the number of drinks purchased, with each costing \(5.50\).
• Let \(p\) represent the number of bags of popcorn purchased, each costing \(6.00\).

So, the correct expression representing the total cost would be:

\[ 13 + 5.50d + 6p \]

Thus, the first option, 13 + 5.50d + 6p, is the correct expression.
