Answer: $0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a bag of chips be x.

Given : A student bought two juice pouches for $1.25 each and 3 bags of chips.

Then, the total cost will be : -

2/times1.25+3/times x=2.5+3x

Since, the total cost was $5.05.

Then, the equation to determine the cost of a bag of chips would be : -

2.5+3x=5.05

Subtract 2.5 from both sides, we get

3x=2.55

Divide both side by 3, we get

x=0.85

Hence, the cost of a bag of chips = $0.85 or 85 cents [∵ 1 dollar = 100 cents]
