5. You want to purchase apples and oranges for 20 friends. Apples cost 30 cents and oranges cost 20 cents. Write an expression for the total amount that you would spend. Apple price = .30 # of apples = n Orange price = .20 # of oranges = 20 - n Total = .30 n + .20(20 - n ) Total = .30 n + 4 - .20 n Total = .10 n + 4
