To find the amount of change Nicholas received from the cashier, we need to subtract the cost of the granola bar from the amount he used to pay.
The cost of the granola bar is ppp dollars.
So the expression to find the change is:
\$10 - p
Therefore, the amount of change Nicholas received is \$(10 - p).
