P = 4.75n
n = 4.75P
P equals 4.75 over n

Hello there,

The question provides us with the following information:

  • $4.75 per set
  • write an equation where P is the price and n is the number of set

Now the correct equation would be in which you multiply 4.75 by the number of sets of markers you need to get the total cost in all.

Therefore, the correct equation would have to be P = 4.75n.

Hope I helped,

Amna
