y=10
x=5.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Let x: the number of restaurants gift cards, and y: the numbers of movie theatres gift card

50x  +  20y   =   450

x   +   y   =   15,

x  =   15  -    y

50  (  15  -  y  )  +  20y   =   450

750  -  50y  +   20y  =   450

y   =   10

x   =   5.

Therefore, Mr Thompson buys 10 movie theatre give cards, and 5.
