Question

At the candy store, a chocolate bar costs $c$ dollars and a vanilla bar costs $2$ dollars more than a chocolate bar. Jamie buys a chocolate bar and three vanilla bars, and Kevin buys five chocolate bars. How much money, in total, do Jamie and Kevin spend at the candy store in terms of $c$?

Answer 1

Given, the CP of chocolate bar is$x
Given, the CP of vanila bar is $x + $2(or simplly x + 2)

Np. of chocolate Jamie brought = 1
Np. of chocolate Jamie brought = 3

Therefore,CP of Total no. of ice cream jamie brought(I1) = x + 3(x + 2) = 4x + 6

No. of chocolates Kevin brought = 5
therefore , CP of Total no. of ice cream kevin brought (II)= 5x

SO total monney spent = (I) + (II)
= 4x + 6 + 5x = 9x +6
