A small fruit basket with 6 apples and 6 oranges costs $7.50. A different fruit basket with 10 apples and 5 oranges costs $8.75. If x is the cost of one apple and y is the cost of one orange, the system of equations below can be used to determine the cost of one apple and one orange.

6x+6y=7.50

10x+5y=8.75

What is the cost of one apple?

0.25
0.5
0.75
1.00
