10. A restaurant leased its banquet hall for a function. The cost was $10 per person. Write an algebraic expression to determine what the cost would be if n people attended the function. Then evaluate the expression for 20, 21, 22, or 23 people. Additional Example 3: Writing and Evaluating Expressions in Word Problems $10 • n Combine n equal amounts of $10. 10 n Cost in dollars 20 10( 20 ) $200 21 10( 21 ) $210 22 10( 22 ) $220 23 10( 23 ) $230 Evaluate for n = 20, 21, 22, and 23. Cost 10 n n
11. Gasoline costs $1.99 per n gallons. What will the cost be for 10, 12, 14, and 15 gallons? Check It Out! Example 3 $1.99 • n Combine n equal amounts of $1.99. 1.99 n Cost in dollars 10 1.99( 10 ) $19.90 12 1.99( 12 ) $23.88 14 1.99( 14 ) $27.86 15 1.99( 15 ) $29.85 Evaluate for n = 10, 12, 14, and 15.

12. Write a word problem that can be evaluated by the algebraic expression 27 + t , and evaluate the expression for t = 1.76. Additional Example 4: Writing a Word Problem from a Math Expression Possible answer: Amed bought a new sweater for $27 plus sales tax t . If the tax was $1.76, what was the total cost of the sweater? 27 + t 27 + 1.76 = 28.76 Substitute 1.76 for t. The total cost of the sweater was $28.76.
13. Write a word problem that can be evaluated by the algebraic expression 43 – d , and evaluate the expression for d = 10.24. Check It Out! Example 4 Possible answer: Tina bought a new jacket for $43 minus a store credit. If the store credit was $10.24, what did Tina pay for the jacket? 43 – d 43 – 10.24 = 32.76 Substitute 10.24 for d. Tina paid $32.76 for the jacket.
