    Option C is the correct answer.

    Explanation:

    Let the cost of fudge be f and taffy be t.

    Chris bought 4 pieces of fudge and 3 pieces of taffy for a total of $7.95

    4 f + 3 t = 7.95

    Samantha bought 2 pieces of fudge and 10 pieces of taffy for a total of $9.50

    2 f + 10 t = 9.5

    Comparing with the options given, we will get

    So, option C is the correct answer.
