Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm on this question in the FLVS practice test right now, and p3 + p2 is not the right numbers. it is p^3 + p^2, or p to the power of three plus p to the power of two. The first person was correct if that was a real answer choice, however, it was not. Anyhow, the answer is A; p + p + p + p +p represents expanded form, and since we don't know p, (it's an unknown number, or a variable) we can assume that it is 1. 4p + 1p is incorrect; the p next to the number represents multiplication, so the variable cannot be skipped or forgotten. p + 5 is incorrect; again, the p next to a number represents multiplication, not addition- unless the addition represents expanded form. In this case, it does not.
