Step-by-step explanation:
Caitlin buys twice as many apples as oranges.
Apples cost 0.25 and Oranges cost 0.30, we have a maximum of 5 to spend.
Let's use the variable x to represent the length of the first and second pieces.
If the third piece has twice the length of the first and second, its length is 2x.
If the fourth piece has half the length of the first and second, its length is 0.5*x.
