Answer 2

2.5 x + 2y

Explanation:

We know that he bought 2.5 pounds of apples that are x dollars a pound and 2 bags of lettuce for y dollars each.

2.5 pounds of an apple = x dollars.

2.5 pounds of an apple/cost = 2.5 x

2 bag of lettuce = y dollar(s).

2 bas lettuce/cost = 2y

Expression: 2.5 x + 2y

Therefore 2.5 x + 2y would represent his total cost.
