Question 1037308: At Joe′s café, one cup of coffee and three doughnuts cost $4.20, and two cups of coffee and two doughnuts cost $4.80. What is the cost for one doughnut? What is the cost for one cup of coffee?

Let c=coffee, d=doughnuts:
1c+3d=4.20
2c+2d=4.80; So:
2c+6d=8.40
2c+2d=4.80
4d=3.60
d=.90
c=1.50
Coffee is $1.50 a cup, and doughnuts are $.90 each!!!!!!!!!
