Answer:

P=3(12)+2(19)-3

P=$71

Step-by-step explanation:

Pani buys 3 shirts for $12 each. This is the expression 3(12) for the cost.

Pani also buys 2 pairs of jeans for $19 each. This is the expression 2(19) for the cost.

She pays together 3(12)+2(19) but she also gets a $3 discount subtracted from her total. So her total price P is P = 3(12)+2(19)-3.

Simplify the parenthesis first.

P=3(12)+2(19)-3

P=36+38-3

P=$71
