Answer:

58 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up your equations:

1) x + y = 87

2) x - y = 29

Use one of the equations to focus on when moving the numbers around such as for this one I used equation one:

3) y = -x + 87

x = (-x + <u>87) + 29</u>

x = -x + <u>116</u>

x + x = 116

2x = 116

x = 58

Input your value for x:

4) 58 + y = 87

y = 87 - 58

y = 29

Solve and check if your values are correct:

5) 58 + 29 = 89 correct

58 - 29 = 29 correct

If he used 1/3 of the stock bottle, then you have

Now, you multiply both sides by 3, which gives you

450=x

So, originally there were 450 bottles in the stock bottle

1 gallon = 8 pints, so  2 gallons = 16 pints.
If each container can hold one pint, then she will need 16 containers.
