A small bottle costs $14.

To solve the problem, the equation would be this:

 8(4+s)=12s-24

Let <em>s </em>represent a small bottle. Since one large bottle is $4 more than a small one, you would write out <em>(4+s)</em>. Then, multiply it by 8 to find one side of the equation, and get <em>8(4+s)</em>. To write out the right side of the equation, you would write out <em>12s </em>to represent 12 small bottles, and <em />subtract <em />24 from that to represent that 8 large bottles is $24 less than 12 small ones. 

Then, proceed to solve the equation to get the answer of <em>s=14</em>. Because a small bottle is $14, you can check your work by substituting the 14 in replace of <em>s</em>. <em />
