Answer 1

Answer:

Part A: 14x + 2

Part B: CJ's order is $30, and Cameron's order is $58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The total cost of the order would be $14 multiplied by the amount of canteens, plus the shipping price of $2. This is what my expression represents.

Part B:

CJ's Order:

14(2) + 2 =

28 + 2

$30

Cameron's Order:

14(4) + 2 =

56 + 2 =

$58

Hope this helps! :D
