I apologize for the confusion. Upon reviewing the problem, I believe Brainly is incorrect. The correct answer is:
Kendra charges $1.40 per piece of candy.
We can solve this using a system of equations. Let c be the cost of one piece of candy and let x be the cost of one car. Then we have:
2x + c = 5.00
x + c = 3.20
Solving the second equation for x, we get:
x = 3.20 - c
Substituting this into the first equation and solving for c, we get:
2(3.20 - c) + c = 5.00
6.40 - c = 5.00
c = 1.40
Therefore, Kendra charges $1.40 per piece of candy.
