In the equation \( y = 0.35x \), \( y \) represents the total cost and \( x \) represents the number of pieces of candy. To find the cost of one piece of candy, we set \( x = 1 \):
\[
y = 0.35 \times 1 = 0.35
\]
Therefore, the cost of one piece of candy is \( \$0.35 \).
The correct answer is **C. $0.35**.
\[
y = 0.35 \times 1 = 0.35
\]
Therefore, the cost of one piece of candy is \( \$0.35 \).
The correct answer is **C. $0.35**.
