The grocery store sells dates for $4.00 a pound and pomegranates for $2.75 a pound. choose an equation in standard form for the weights of dates d and pomegrantes p that a customer could buy with $12 a) 4p + 2.75d + 12 b) 4d = 2.75p +12 c) 4d + 2.75p = 12 d) 4+ 2.75 = d asap!

Hi there! The answer is C.

A customer can buy for a total amount of $12.

The total cost of the products is the price per product times the amount of products. Therefore, we get the following total cost:
4 x the amount of dates + 2.75 x the amount of pomegranates = 4d + 2.75p.

Since the total money that can be spend equals the total cost, we get the following:
4d + 2.75p = 12. The answer is C.

If jon had $4.00 then takes away $2.25, then he should have $1.75 left. $4.00 - $2.25 = $1.75 hope this ; )
