Question

Highlighter pens cost $3.86 per set at an office supply store. Which equation can be used to determine the price, P, of n sets of these pens? n = 3.86P P equals 3.86 over n n equals 3.86 over P P = 3.86n

Answer 1

P=3.86n
P=Price
N=Number of pens you buy
The price depends on the number of pens that you buy. Each pen costs $3.86, so you will have to multiply the price of each pen by the number of pens that you buy and it will give you your price to pay.
Hope this helped.

Answer 2

The last Equation is Correct: P = 3.86n
Meaning N as the number of sets and P as the total price of the # of sets times the unit price.
