Part A.
Before you can write any sort of expression, you need to define variables. "grapes g" is not a definition, so the exercise seems meaningless as written. It seems the intent is to ...
  let g, b, p represent the numbers of pounds of grapes, bananas, and pears, respectively.

Then, the total cost of some weight of fruit is
  2.19g + 0.59b + 1.49p


Part B.
For g=3, b=3, p=2, the expression evaluates to
  2.19*3 +0.59*3 +1.49*2 = 11.32

The total cost of 3 pounds of grapes, 3 pounds of bananas, and 2 pounds of pears is ...
  $11.32

The expression that represents the total price of the fruit is $2.19g + $0.59b + $1.49p.

The total cost for 3 pounds of grapes, 3 pounds of bananas, and 2 pounds of pears is $11.32.

The total price of fruits is the sum of the price of grapes, price of bananas and the price of pears.

  • Price of grapes = $2.19 x g = $2.19g
  • Price of bananas = $0.59 x b = $0.59b
  • Price of pears = $1.49 x p  = $1.49p

Expression for the total price of fruits = $2.19g + $0.59b + $1.49p

The total cost for 3 pounds of grapes, 3 pounds of bananas, and 2 pounds of pears = $2.19(3) + $0.59(3) + $1.49(2)

$6.57 + $1.77 + $2.98 = $11.32
