Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be apple juice and y be orange juice

12 = x + y

x = 12 - y

15 = 1x + 1.5y

x = 15 - 1.5y

set the equations as equal

12 - y = 15 - 1.5y

solve for y

12 + .5y = 15

.5y = 3

y = 6,  you bought 6 bottles of orange juice

so, 12 = x + 6 , x = 6 , you bought 6 bottles of apple juice
