The expression that represents the amount spent by each woman is [tex]9 +1.35 + \frac{1}{2} \times (3.50 +1.74)[/tex]

The table entries are given as:

Item Cost (dollars)

Adult ticket 9

Child ticket 6

Drink 1.35

Popcorn 3.50

Veggie cup 1.74

Soft pretzel 2.65

Apple slices 3.85

From the question, we understand that, each woman bought the following a drink

The initial cost is:

[tex]Cost= 1.35[/tex]

They also shared one popcorn and one veggie cup.

Half of the sum of these amounts would be added to the cost.

So, we have

[tex]Cost= 1.35 + \frac{1}{2} \times (3.50 +1.74)[/tex]

Lastly, the cost of an adult ticket would be added to the above cost

[tex]Cost= 9 +1.35 + \frac{1}{2} \times (3.50 +1.74)[/tex]

Hence, the expression that represents the cost is [tex]9 +1.35 + \frac{1}{2} \times (3.50 +1.74)[/tex]
