Answer:

p = 3*f - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f represent the number of five dollar bills and p the number of pennies.

The expression "The number of pennies is" is equivalent to "p =";

"three times the number of five dollar bills" is equivalent to "3*f"

"eight less than three times the number of five dollar bills" is equivalent to "3*f - 8"

Then the expression is p = 3*f - 8
