The cost to see a movie is 10$ for adults and 6 for childern. The total cost is 10x + 6y where x is the number of adults and y is the number of childern seeing the movie. What is the total cost if three adults and 5 childern go to see a movie?

Answer 1

To find the total cost, we substitute the values into the equation:

Total cost = 10x + 6y

x = 3 (number of adults)
y = 5 (number of children)

Total cost = 10(3) + 6(5)
Total cost = 30 + 30
Total cost = 60

Therefore, the total cost if three adults and five children go to see a movie is $60.
