Respuesta :

Answer:

The Algebraic expression representing amount spent on 'p'pencil and 'm' pens is  [tex]0.5p+0.25m[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount spent on each pencil = $0.50

Amount spent on each pen = $0.25

Let the Number of pencils be 'p'.

Let the number of pens be 'm'.

We need to find the Algebraic expression to find the amount spent on pencils and pens

Solution:

Now we can say that;

The total amount spent is equal to sum of Amount spent on each pencil multiplied by the Number of pencils and Amount spent on each pen multiplied by the Number of pens.

framing in equation form we get;

The total amount spent = [tex]0.5p+0.25m[/tex]

Hence The Algebraic expression representing amount spent on 'p'pencil and 'm' pens is  [tex]0.5p+0.25m[/tex].
