The answer would be b. Due to the fact that it was stated that only ONE pint of strawberries was bought there would be no variable. However, the opposite occurs with the bananas, for the number of pounds was not given. This means that the 0.50 would need to have a variable. And finally, the 4.10 is the cost so it would be what everything equals.
