Chris buys p pairs of pants and 4 more shirts than pairs of pants. Shirts cost $18 each and pair of pants cost $25 each. What does each term in the expression 25p + 18(p + 4) represent? What does the entire expression represent?
The total expression represents the total number of pants and shirts Chris bought.
25p = Total cost of pants
18(p+4) = Total cost of shirts
Answer: This expression becomes total cost.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of pairs of pant = p
Number of shirts = p+4
Cost of shirt = $18
Cost of pants = $25
So, According to question, total cost becomes,
\(Total\ cost=25p+18(p+4)\)
Hence, this expression becomes total cost .
