1 answer

To find the equation that represents the total cost, we need to multiply the weight of the oranges by the cost per pound.

The weight of the oranges is 3 1/2 pounds, which can also be written as 7/2 pounds.

The cost per pound is $3.90.

Therefore, the equation that represents the total cost c is:

c = (7/2) * 3.90
