First let's translate these words algebraically and form an equation:

Let oranges be x and apples be y, [tex]2.29x+1.69y[/tex]

a. coefficients are the constants multiplied by the variable, they represent the price of both oranges and apples.

b. I am assuming that the terms here represent how much he paid for the pounds of oranges and apples he bought in total.
