Answer:

The answer to your question is: 1 bag of apples cost $6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write an equation:

1 bag of apples + 3 cartons of strawberries = $18

but 1 bag of apples = 1.5 cartons of strawberries

So

1.5 cartons of strawberries + 3 cartons of strawberries = $18

simplify   4.5 cartons of strawberries = 18

                1 carton of strawberries = 18/ 4.5 = 4

finally         1 bag of apples = 1.5 (4) = 6
