Answer:

c + 3d = 14.75

2c + 5d = 26

A box of candy is $4.25 and a drink is $3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the cost of a box of candy and let d represent the cost of a drink

c + 3d = 14.75

2c + 5d = 26

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2

-2c - 6d = -29.5

2c + 5d = 26

Add them together

-d = -3.5

d = 3.5

Plug in 3.5 as d into one of the equations to solve for c

c + 3d = 14.75

c + 3(3.5) = 14.75

c + 10.5 = 14.75

c = 4.25

So, a box of candy is $4.25 and a drink is $3.50
