Part a) 30+m

Part b) $36

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Identify an expression that represents the amount Susan spent on the fruits

The complete question in the attached figure

Let

m ------> the number of apples

n -----> the number of oranges

q ----> the amount Susan spent on the fruits

we know that

m+n=15 ----> (in total she needs 15 fruits)

n=15-m -----> equation A

q=3m+2n ----> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B

q=3m+2(15-m)

q=3m+30-2m

q=30+m -----> expression that represents the amount Susan spent on the fruits

Part b) Identify the amount she spent if she bought 6 apples

we know that

If m=6 apples

substitute the value of m in the expression of Part a)

q=30+m -----> q=30+6=$36

answer: true

step-by-step explanation:

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.
