Answer:

$2 + $5p = $13.25

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial purchase = $2

Pound of sliced turkey = p

Cost per pound of sliced turkey = 5$

Total amount spent = $13.25

Jennifers purchase from grocery store :

Initial purchase + (pound of sliced turkey * cost or pound) = total amount spent

$2 + $5p = $13.25
