Answer:

c=8p

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that 1 pound of chocolate will cost $8. Felipe is going to buy "p" pounds of chocolate, and "p" means "any number"; so Felipe is going to buy any number of pounds of chocolate.

The formula we would use to calculate this is cost of one pound of chocolate multiplied by number of pounds of chocolate. And the way we can form this algebraically is by writing c=8p.

The "c" stands for total cost and we don't have to put the multiply sign when using algebra, as long as the figures are touching.
