the answer would be B (y=1.25x

Step-by-step explanation:
If you are trying to find out the total cost you would multiply the number of pounds you bought (x) by the cost per pound (1.25) in order to get ur answer
When you put it into the substitute equation
you’d get
y(total spent)= 1.25(cost per pound) x(number of pounds)


Hope this helped!
