EXPLANATION

Given the expression


1+4.25n+(3)/(2)p-3+(-2p)+(5)/(4)n

Removing the parentheses:


1+4.25n\text{ + }(3)/(2)p-3-2p+(5)/(4)n

Grouping like terms:


4.25n+(5)/(4)n+(3)/(2)p-2p+1-3

Adding like terms:


(11)/(2)n-(1)/(2)p-2

Representing 11/2 as a decimal number:


5.5n-(1)/(2)p-2

So, the right option is A.
