Create A Math Formula

Devon owns a house cleaning company and has to give price quotes to potential customers. He figures out his price by assuming a $25 base charge and then adding $8 for each bathroom and $4 for each other room. If he uses P to represent the price, B for bathroom, and R for other rooms, create a formula to represent this situation.

Let me see.

$8 for each bathroom = 8B

$4 for each room = 4R

Base charge = $25

The base charge does not change.

I think the formula is P = 25 + (8B + 4R).

You say?
