Answer: C = 2.99+ 2.58 +2.59x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given.

The total cost for her (C) is equal to the price of the drink (2.99) ; plus the product of the price of each bag of chips (1.29) and the number of bags of chips that she bought(2); plus the product of amount of gallons of gasoline purchased (x) and the price of each gallon (2.59)

Mathematically speaking:

C =2.99 + (2)1.29 + 2.59 x

C = 2.99+ 2.58 +2.59x
