Answer:

one pound of apple cost $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount they both spent at the grocery store be y and x be the price of apples per pound.

Since Tara bought 5 pounds of apples, 5x = y (1) and Ashley bought 3 pounds of apples and $5 worth other groceries, 3x + 5 = y (2).

Equating both expressions, 5x = 3x + 5

collecting like terms,

5x - 3x = 5

2x = 5

dividing both sides by 2, we have

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

So one pound of apple cost $2.5
