Question

Daley went to the grocery store to buy berries. blueberries cost $1.50 per pound and strawberries cost $2.25 per pound. daley spent $10.50 on fruit. write an equation in standard form, where b is the number of pounds of blueberries and s is the number of pounds of strawberries. 1.5 2.25 = $10.50

Answer 1

The equation to determine the price of berries bought by Daley can be given as; 1.50b + 2.25s = 10.50

An algebraic expression is a term used in mathematics to represent an equation consisting of both numbers and letters.

Since the blueberries cost $1.50 per pound and strawberries cost $2.25 per pound and Daley spent a total of $10.50, an algebraic expression or equation can be written as follows in this case;

1.50(b) + 2.25(s) = 10.50

Here b represents the number of pounds of blueberries and s represents the number of pounds of strawberries which are multiplied by their respective cost per pound with a result of the total money spent by her which is $10.50
