Question

a fruit stand sells mangoes for $3.49 per pound, papayas for $1.40 per pound, and coconuts for $1.24 per pound.

part a
which expression represents the total price of \\(m\\) pounds of mangoes, \\(p\\) pounds of papayas, and \\(c\\) pounds of coconuts?

• \\(6.13mpc\\)
• \\(6.13(m + p + c)\\)
• \\(3.49m + 1.40p + 1.24c\\)
• \\(3.49p + 1.40p + 1.24p\\)

part b
what is the total cost of 3 pounds of mangoes, 4 pounds of papayas, and 6 pounds of coconuts?

• $6.13
• $23.51
• $61.30
• $79.69

<reasoning>

Write the expression for the total cost

\[
\text{Total Cost} = 3.49m + 1.40p + 1.24c
\]

Substitute the given values into the expression

\[

$$\begin{aligned} m &= 3 \\ p &= 4 \\ c &= 6 \\ \text{Total Cost} &= 3.49(3) + 1.40(4) + 1.24(6) \end{aligned}$$

\]

Calculate the final numerical value

\[

$$\begin{aligned} \text{Total Cost} &= 10.47 + 5.60 + 7.44 \\ &= 23.51 \end{aligned}$$

\]
