(WILL GIVE 20 POINTS!!!!)Question 1 Lola took $21 with her to the grocery store to buy apples and oranges. Oranges cost $7 a pound, but the price of a pound of apples is half the price of oranges. Let y represent pounds of apples, and let x represent pounds of oranges.

Cost of Oranges:

x =$ 7/lb

Cost of apples:

y = 7/2

y = $3.5/lb

21 = 7x + 3.5y

I'm not really sure what I'm answering here, because a question isn't stated.

Hope this helps!
