; Vicky paid $1.11.
3.90c=3.5 ; Vicky paid $13.65.
The equation that represents the total cost, C, that Vicky paid for the oranges and the amount of money she spent is:
C = 3.9 * (3 + 1 + 2)
Simplifying this equation, we have:
C = 3.9 * 6
C = 23.4
Therefore, Vicky paid $23.40 for the oranges.
To find the total cost that Vicky paid for the oranges, we need to multiply the amount of oranges she bought by the cost per pound.
In this case, Vicky bought 3.1.2 pounds of oranges, and each pound costs $3.90.
Thus, the equation that represents the total cost is:
Total cost = Amount of oranges * Cost per pound
We can substitute the values into the equation:
Total cost = 3.1.2 * $3.90
Now we can simplify the equation:
Total cost = 3 * 1 * 2 * $3.90
Total cost = $23.40
So the correct equation representing the total cost is not provided in the options.
