Expression that represent the show the total cost for any number of rose bushes and tomato plant is:
[tex]Total\ cost = 5x + 2y[/tex]
Solution:
Let "x" be the number of roses bush
Let "y" be the number of tomato plant
Cost of 1 rose bush = $ 5
Cost of 1 tomato plant = $ 2
To find: Expression that represent the show the total cost for any number of rose bushes and tomato plant
Total cost = number of roses bush x Cost of 1 rose bush + number of tomato plant x Cost of 1 tomato plant
[tex]Total\ cost = x \times 5 + y \times 2\\\\Total\ cost = 5x + 2y[/tex]
Thus the expression is found where, x and y are the number of rose bush and tomoato plant bought respectively
