been Stuck On This For A While

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

if you want to buy x sodas, it costs you 2x

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

if you want to buy y candy bars, it costs you 0.5y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x + (0.5)y

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

So total amount of money you would need = 2x + 0.5y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m=2x+0.5y

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):
