Respuesta :

Answer: $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Graham spends a total of $15.05 on 10 apples and a packet of strawberries

Cost of strawberries packet $2.55

Suppose the cost of each apple is x

So, [tex]10x+2.55=15.05[/tex]

On solving

[tex]\Rightarrow10x=15.05-2.55\\\Rightarrow10x=12.5\\\Rightarrowx=\frac{12.5}{10}=\$1.25[/tex]

The cost of each apple is $1.25
