-2-(3(x+6)-9-(7-x)-3x

- 24 - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Remove Parentheses

-2 - 3x - 6 - 9 - 7 + x - 3x

2) Collect like terms

( -2 - 6 - 9 - 7) + (-3x+x-3x)

3) Simplify

Part A: Total cost = 10 + 4s

Part B: Solving for s = 2

10 + 4 * 2 = US$ 18

Correct statement and question:

Write an expression to represent admission to a zoo of $10.00 and the cost of special exhibits s at $4 each. Evaluate your expression when s = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Admission to the zoo = US$ 10

Special exhibit cost (s) = US$ 4

2. Evaluate your expression when s = 2

Total cost = Cost of admission + (s) * Special exhibit cost

Total cost = 10 + (s) * 4

Total cost = 10 + 4s

3. Solving for s = 2

10 + 4s

10 + 4 * 2 = US$ 18
