Question

A store sells T-shirts for $14 each and shorts for $18 each.Write an algebraic expression to find the total revenue if they sell x t shirts and y shorts

Answer 1

Hello, Epic,

If x t-shirts sell for $14 each, then multiply x times $14 to determine the revenue from t-shirts: T-Shirt Revenue = $14x

Same for the shorts: Shorts Revenue = $18y.

The total revenue is the sum of these two:

Total Revenue = $14x + $18y
