<h3>Jason bought 20 stamps of $0.41 each and 8 postcards of $0.26 each.</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let stamps be s and postcards be p
Given that,
The number of stamps was 4 more than twice the number of postcards
s = 4 + 2p -------- eqn 1
Jason bought both 41-cent stamps and 26-cent postcards and spent $10.28
41 cent = $ 0.41
26 cent = $ 0.26
Therefore,
0.41s + 0.26p = 10.28 --------- eqn 2
Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2
0.41(4 + 2p) + 0.26p = 10.28
1.64 + 0.82p + 0.26p = 10.28
1.08p = 10.28 - 1.64
1.08p = 8.64
Divide both sides by 1.08
p = 8
Substitute p = 8 in eqn 1
s = 4 + 2(8)
s = 4 + 16
s = 20
Thus Jason bought 20 stamps and 8 post cards
First, you need to find how much an ounce costs. To do that, you have to divide 1.39 by 8. Then you get about 0.17. Now, you multiply 0.17 by 14, and get the answer of 2.38. Therefore, a 14-oz bottle of ketchup costs $2.38.
