Y=30(3) + 25(4) +65(3)

A is just asking you to write a mathematical expression to determine the total amount of money (y) the two have collected together. Alicia sold 30 bleacher seats, each being worth $3. And she also sold 25 floor seats, each being $4. Travis sold 65 bleacher seats, each for $3. Just put it together to from the equation. :D
