One pencil costs Rs. 2 and one fountain pen costs Rs. 15. Write the expression to find the cost of x pencils and y fountain pens.


Given :

Cost of one pencil $= Rs. 2$

Cost of one fountain pen $= Rs. 15$

To do :

We have to write the expression to find the cost x pencils and y fountain pens.

Solution :

Cost of x pencils $= Rs. 2(x)$

Cost of y fountain pens $= Rs. 15(y)$

Cost of x pencils and y fountain pens $= Cost of x pencils + Cost of y fountain pens$

                                                                    $= 2x+15y$.

Therefore, the expression to find the cost x pencils and y fountain pens is $2x + 15$.
