The farmer's market sells fruit baskets. Each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Use a to represent the cost of each apple and p for the cost of each pear. a) Write an EXPRESSION that represents the cost of 12 apples
b) Write an EXPRESSION that represents the cost of 4 pears
c) Write an EXPRESSION that represents the TOTAL COST of one basket

a) a x 12

b) p x 4

c) (a x 12) + (p x 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) Since a is representing the cost of each apple, we have to multiply the a with 12.

2) Since p is representing the cost of each pear, we have to multiply the p with 4.

3) Finally, for c, each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Therefore, we just use our eautions from before and add them which will give you the total cost of one basket.

Hope this helps! :D
