Jason purchased three different sizes of candy at the store. The medium candy was twice as expensive as the small candy. The large
candy was $5 more than the medium candy. He spent a total of $30 on
candy. Write and solve an equation to determine the cost of the small
candy.

$5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the small candy be represented by x.

The medium candy was twice as expensive as the small candy. This will be: = 2×x = 2x

The large candy was $5 more than the medium candy. This will be: = 2x + 5

Since Jason spent a total of $30 on

candy, the cost of the small candy will be:

x + 2x + 2x + 5 = 30

5x + 5 = 30

5x = 30 - 5

5x = 25

x = 25/5

x= 5

The small candy cost $5
