Question

Hi! (-: This is due really soon, so any help would be appreciated!

Write an expression to represent the expenses of the fundraiser in the following paragraph.

The varsity basketball team is selling t-shirts as a fundraiser. It costs them $100 to have the shirts professionally designed, and they have to pay $5 for each shirt. They plan on selling the shirts for $10 each.

Answer 1

Answer:

5x-10x+100 or a simplified version: -5x+100 where x is the number of shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

5x is for every shirt they have to pay for and it adds to the cost

-10x is for every shirt they sell which decreases the total cost

100 is for the upfront cost of having the shirts professionally designed

hope this helped and if i misunderstood something lmk so i can change it :))
