Answer:

[tex]Cost = 52.5n + 449.85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Cost = 3.5n + 29.99[/tex]

Required

Determine cost of 15

[tex]Cost = 3.5n + 29.99[/tex]

The cost of 15 sweatshirts is calculated by multiplying the cost of 1 by 15.

So, we have:

[tex]Cost = (3.5n + 29.99) * 15[/tex]

Open Brackets

[tex]Cost = 3.5n * 15 + 29.99 * 15[/tex]

[tex]Cost = 52.5n + 449.85[/tex]

Hence, the simplified cost of 15 sweatshirts is

[tex]Cost = 52.5n + 449.85[/tex]
