Answer: d. 5(p + 1.5) = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Viktor plays baseball for 1.5 hours per day. In 5 days therefore he would have played:
= 1.5 * 5 days
He also plays piano for p hours each day. In 5 days he would have played:
= 5 * p days of piano
If both of these combined is 12, the expression would be:
(1.5 * 5) + (5 * p) = 12
Factoring them using 5:
5 * (1.5 + p) = 12
5(1.5 + p) = 12
