Question 1145333
.
<pre>
Let R and A be the prices for one oRange and one Apple at the supermarket, respectively.

Then from the condition you have this system of equations


    3R +       5A = 2.05      (1)

    3R + 5*(1.5A) = 2.55      (2)


Simplify it


    3R +       5A   = 2.05    (1)

    3R +       7.5A = 2.55    (2)


To solve this system, apply the Elimination method. 

For it, subtract equation (1') from (2').  You will get


               2.5A = 0.50

                  A = {{{0.50/2.5}}} = 0.2.


Then from (1),  3R + 5*0.2 = 2.05,  3R = 2.05 - 1 = 1.05,  R = 1.05/3 = 0.35.

Solved.
