Answer: the cost of one apple is $1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one apple.

Let y represent the cost of one Pomegranate.

Donata bought 3 Apples and 5 Pomegranates at the local supermarket for a total of $16.50. This means that

3x + 5y = 16.5 - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Meaghan bought 6 Apples and 11 Pomegranates at the same store for a total of $35.70. This means that

6x + 11y = 35.7- - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

6x + 10y = 33

6x + 11y = 35.7

Subtracting, it becomes

- y = - 2.7

y = 2.7

Substituting y = 2.7 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 5 × 2.7 = 16.5

3x + 13.5 = 16.5

3x = 16.5 - 13.5 = 3

x = 3/3 = 1
