It would be C. This is because the dates are associated with the letter they provide (D), and likewise with the pomegranates, to equal 12 dollars.

Answer:

Option C 4d + 2.75p = 12

Explanation:

The grocery shop sells dates at $4.00 a pound and pomegranates for $2.75 a pound

If the weight of dates is D and pomegranates is p then standard equation for a customer could buy with $12.00 will be 4D + 2.75P = 12

Therefore Option C will be the answer.
