The algebric expression we get:

$5.50d + $ 6.00p + $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex and Leandro purchase two matinee movie tickets.

One movie ticket costs $6.50

It means they have already spent $13 without purchasing the popcorn and drink.

A drink costs = $5.50

A bag of popcorn costs = $ 6.00

Thus the expression we get is:

$5.50d + $ 6.00p + $13

where 'd' shows drink costs and 'p' shows cost of popcorn.

In the expression $5.50d + $ 6.00p + $13:

d and p are variables Coefficients are the numbers next to the variables. In this expression 5.50 and 6.00 are coefficients And constant is the value which stays always same. In this expression 13 is the constant ...
