Phillip's Soup Kitchen charges the same price, $8.95, for a bowl of any of their soups. The Rag-dale Family Reunion was being held at a park across the street from Phillip's Soup Kitchen. For lunch at the reunion, people had a choice of a bologna sandwich or a bowl of soup from Phillip's Soup Kitchen.
If R people ended up ordering a bowl of soup for lunch, then the equation P = can be used to determine the total price, P, that was charged for the soup.
