Mr. Imani wants to purchase paper and notebooks for his classroom. At Dollar Discount he can buy packs of paper, p , for $1.25 each and notebooks, n , for $2.50 each. This is modeled by 1.25p + 2.50n . Evaluate for p = 10 and n=30 to find how much it will cost Mr. Imani to purchase 10 packs of paper and 30 notebooks. (1 point)

To evaluate the expression 1.25p + 2.50n, we substitute p = 10 and n = 30:
1.25(10) + 2.50(30) = $12.50 + $75.00 = $87.50
Therefore, it will cost Mr. Imani $87.50 to purchase 10 packs of paper and 30 notebooks.
