Answer 1

A. the amount she spends restocking her supplies

Answer 2

Answer: B. the total amount she spends money on restocking her supplies

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

During the course of the year, she will restock her supplies and will spend $22 each time she restocks the supplies

22x+54.35

SO, the term 22x equals to $22 multiplied by the times she restocks the supplies. For example: if she restocks the supplies 5 times, the total amount will be:

22 (5)+ 54.35

So, the term 22x describes the total amount she spends money on restocking her supplies. option B
