Question

Choose the equation that represents this situation. Use p to represent the

price of an item and tto represent its total cost with gift wrapping.
A store adds a $5 fee to the price of each item that a customer wants to have
gift-wrapped
O A. p=t+5
O B. t= 5p
OC. t= p +5
O D. t+p=5

Answer 1

(c)t=p+5

Explanation:

total price= item price + gift wrapping cost (given)

gift wrapping cost is constant/unchanged= 5

total price= t

item price=p

therefore by derivation t=p+5 (option c)
