The farmer's market sells fruit baskets. Each basket contains 12 apples and 4 pears. Use a to represent the cost of each apple a
nd 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
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.
