To find how much it will cost Mr. Imani to purchase 10 packs of paper and 30 notebooks, we need to evaluate the expression 1.25p + 2.50n for p = 10 and n = 30.
Substituting p = 10 and n = 30 into the expression:
1.25 * 10 + 2.50 * 30
Performing the multiplication:
12.50 + 75.00
Adding the two terms:
12.50 + 75.00 = 87.50
Therefore, it will cost Mr. Imani $87.50 to purchase 10 packs of paper and 30 notebooks.
