Answer: The cost of one granola bar is $0.60 and the cost of one apple is $0.35

Step-by-step explanation: Cost of one granola bar = x

Cost of one apple = y According to the given statement;

4x+y=2.75     Eqn 1

2x+3y=2.25   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

Dividing both sides by 5

Putting y=0.35 in Eqn 2

Dividing both sides by 4

The cost of one granola bar is $0.60 and the cost of one apple is $0.35
