Next time please post the full question: Denise and Stacey went to a carnival. The admission fee was $6 per person. Each ride at the carnival costs c dollars. The game booths charged g dollars for each game. Both Denise and Stacey went on 7 rides each. Stacey played 3 games, while Denise played 2 games. Which expression represents the total amount of money that Denise and Stacey spent at the carnival? A. 7c + 5g + 6 B. 7c + 5g + 12 C. 14c + 5g + 6 D. 14c + 5g + 12

Mercury:

in general, if an item costs (a) amount, the cost of buying some number (b) items is a*b applying this logic to the problem, if they each went on 7 rides, that's 14 rides. the rides cost (c) dollars each, so they spent 14*c on rides repeat this logic with the # of games finally, since they both paid a flat 6 dollar admission fee, add on 6 + 6 = 12 dollars to the previous result
