B.

D.

To calculate the total cost of Jessica's side dishes for 15 days, we first need to find the total cost of one day's worth of side dishes and then multiply it by 15.
The cost of one fruit cup is $0.75 and the cost of one salad is $1.50.
So the cost of one day's worth of side dishes = $0.75 (fruit cup) + $1.50 (salad) = $2.25
To find the total cost for 15 days, we multiply the daily cost by 15:
Total cost = $2.25 * 15 = $33.75
Therefore, the total cost of Jessica's side dishes for 15 days is $33.75. Answer is D.
