Mrs. Baker paid $2.50 for 5 pounds of bananas. Write an equation relating the cost c to the number of pounds p of bananas. How much would Mrs. Baker pay for 8 pounds of bananas.

I think the answer will be 8.33 because first you would have to figure out how much 3 pounds would be its pretty much 2.50 divided by 3 that will equal to. 83 but each 5 pounds will equal is 2.50 dollars more so that means 2.50+5+.83=8.33
