John will pay $8.68 for the combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries.
Let: b=cost of banana per pound and c=cost of cherries per pound
Equation 1: For 3 pounds of cherries and 2 pounds of bananas, John pays a total of $24.95.
3c + 2b =$24.95
Equation 2: The cost of bananas is $6.50 less than a pound of cherries.
b= c - $6.50
We can substitute the second equation into the first one to solve for the cost of cherries per pound.
3c + (2)(c-$6.50)= $24.95
3c + 2c -$13.00 = $24.95
5c = $24.95 + $13.00
c = $7.59
Substituting the value of c to the second equation to solve for b.
b= $7.59 - $6.50 = $1.09
The combined cost of 1 pound of banana and 1 pound of cherries is $1.09 + $7.59 or $8.68.

Yes it is true! it is true because two different numbers go to the same number, if it was false it would have to be the one number to two different numbers.
