We define the variables:
 c: represent the cost per pound of the apples
 In addition, we have a 5% tax
 The correct expression for the total cost will then be:
 5c + 0.05 * 5 * c 
 This expression can be rewritten in other ways:
 5 (c + 0.05c)
 5c + 0.05 (5c)
 1.05 (5c)
 Answer: 
 The correct answers are: 
 5 (c + 0.05c)
 5c + 0.05 (5c)
 1.05 (5c)
