Brian spends the same amount of money each morning. On Saturday he bought a large coffee for $1.25 and 2 doughnuts. On Sunday he brought a small coffee for $.50 and 5 doughnuts. Write and solve an equation to determine the cost of one doughnut.

Cost of one doughnut is $0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate of one doughnut = $x

On Saturday he bought a large coffee and 2 doughnuts.

Cost of one large coffee = $1.25

Cost of 2 doughnuts = $2x

Total cost = $(1.25 + 2x)

On Sunday, he bought a small coffee and 5 doughnuts.

Cost of one small coffee = $0.50

Cost of 5 doughnuts = $5x

Total cost = $(0.50 + 5x)

Since, Brian spent same amount of money each morning,

Total expenditure on Saturday morning = Total expenditure on Sunday morning

(1.25 + 2x) = (0.50 + 5x)

1.25 - 0.50 = 5x - 2x

0.75 = 3x

x = $0.25

Therefore, cost of one doughnut is $0.25

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
