At a local grocery store apples cost $0.50 each and bananas cost $0.30 each. the expression 0.50x+0.30y can be used to find the cost of buying some apples and bananas. 1. interpret what the x and y represents in context. what does each term represent? what do each of the coefficients represent?

they each represent how much you are paying.

Does that help? If not, be sure to let me know!

x represents number of apples and y represents number of bananas, and so because each apple costs 0.50 you would place 0.50 next to x and each banana costs 0.30, place 0.30 next to y

hope this helps

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
