standard form for a linear equation means
• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions
• only the constant on the right-hand-side
• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted
• "x" must not have a negative coefficient
therefore,

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer
Find out the how much does one apple cost .
To prove
Let us assume that the number of bananas be x .
Let us assume that the number of apples be y .
As given
At a greengrocer, two bananas and one apple cost $1.16 .
Than the equation becomes
2x + y = 1.16
one banana and one apple cost $0.71.
Than the equation becomes
x + y = 0.71
Subtracting x + y = 0.71 from 2x + y = 1.16
2x - x + y - y = 1.16 - 0.71
x = 0.45
Put in the equation x + y = 0.71
0.45 + y = 0.71
y = 0.71 - 0.45
y = $0.26
Therefore the cost of the one apple is $0.26 .
If you mean in decimal form then it would be 15.65
