Answer:

[tex]5c+0.05(5c)[/tex]

[tex]1.05(5c)[/tex]

[tex]5(c+0.05c)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

c-----> the cost per pound of the apples

y----> the total cost

we know that

[tex]5\%=5/100=0.05[/tex]

so

The algebraic expression that represent the situation is

1) [tex]y=5c+0.05(5c)[/tex] ------> equation A

2) Factor [tex]5c[/tex] -----> in the equation A

[tex]y=5c(1+0.05)[/tex]

[tex]y=1.05(5c)[/tex]

3) Factor [tex]5[/tex] -----> in the equation A

[tex]y=5(c+0.05c)[/tex]
