Two friends shop for fresh fruit. Jackson buys a watermelon for $7.85 and 5 pounds of cherries. Tim buys a pineapple for $4.15 and 4 pounds of cherries. Use the variable p to represent
the price, in dollars, per pound of cherries. Write and simplify an expression to represent how much
more Jackson spent.

3.67 + p

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackson

7.85 + 5p
