C: (3 x $8) + $5
D: 3 x ($5 + $8)

Answer 1

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation: In order to figure out which equation this is you will need to first read that the question says Arturo buys 3 containers of ice cream and each one is $5 so that's how you get (3 x $5) and he also buys the $8 Cake so you have to add that in too which gets you to (3 x $5) + $8.
