To form an equation in standard form for the weights of kumquats k and Asian pears p that a customer could buy with $22, we can use the information given about their prices.
The price of kumquats is $4.75 per pound, so the total cost of kumquats bought would be 4.75k.
The price of Asian pears is $2.25 per pound, so the total cost of Asian pears bought would be 2.25p.
Since the customer has $22 to spend, the equation can be written as:
4.75k + 2.25p = 22
Therefore, the correct equation in standard form is A. 4.75k + 2.25p = 22.
The grocery store sells kumquats for $4.75 a pound and Asian pears fro $2.25 a pound. Wwrite an equation in standard form for the weights of kumquants k and Asian pears p that a customer could buy with $22.
A. 4.75k + 2.25p = 22
B. 4.75k = 2.25p + 22
C. 4.75 + 2.25 = k
D. 4.75p + 2.25k = 22
