What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

Given that a person buys a phone for ​$81 and signs up for a​ single-line phone plan with 2000 monthly anytime minutes. The plan costs ​$119.92 per month.

The expression will be formed as below:-

119.92(m)+81=C(t)

119.92(23)+81=C(t)

2839.16=C(t)

Therefore, the total cost will be equal to $2839.16.
