X= be coffee

Y=be donuts


Set up equations


10x+5y=16.50

5x+10y=14.25


Now multiply first equation by -2 to get a negative


(-2)10x+5y(-2)=16.50(-2)


-20x-10y=-33


Now put both equations to solve for x


-20x-10y=-33

5x+10y=14.25

___________

-15x. = -18.75


Now divide -15 bith sides to get x alone


X= -18.75/-15


X= 1.25



The cost of each coffee cup$1.25
