There is an error in taking input.
First refer the execution of the code at IDEONE.com
.This code just take a float input and simply displays it.

Isn’t the above code in IDEONE.com gives you an idea that scanf("d.2f",&x,&y) is not the correct way/format of taking float input.
This is the precise way ::
scanf("%d%f",&x,&y);

A format specifier follows this prototype:%[li][width][modifiers]type.Refer this page .
[/li]

So this is the correct code,it will Get Accepted Now.I have removed the bug that i just pointed out.

enter code here
#include<stdio.h>
int main() 
{ 
 int x; 
 float y;
 scanf("%d%f",&x,&y);/*HERE  scanf("%d%.2f",&x,&y); WAS THE ERROR*/
 if((x%5==0) && (x +.50) <= y)
 {
      y=y-(x+.50);
 }    
  printf("%.2f\n",y); 
  return 0;
}
