Answer: 7p

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the equation given:

7p + 3c + 6

Where:

p = popcorn

7 = popcorn cost in $

Since p represents popcorn, the term that will help Andrena determine the amount of money she will spend on popcorn is 7p:

For example, if she buys 2 bags of popcorns:

7 (2) $ =$14, she will spend $14 on popcorns.
