1 answer
The expression 1.25p + 2.50n represents the cost of purchasing packs of paper and notebooks for Mr. Imani's classroom. The coefficient 1.25 represents the cost per pack of paper, and the coefficient 2.50 represents the cost per notebook. The variables p and n represent the number of packs of paper and notebooks Mr. Imani wants to purchase, respectively. By multiplying the cost per item by the number of items, we can calculate the total cost of the paper and notebooks Mr. Imani wants to buy.
