Answer:
So a bag of chip costs $2.39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = cost of a bag of chip
Let y = cost of a box of pretzel
Micheal buys two bags of chips and three boxes of pretzels for $5.13
This means
2x + 3y = 5.13 - - - - - - - - - -1
He then buys another bag of chips and 2 boxes of pretzels for $3.09
This means
x + 2y = 3.09 - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Solving equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously and using the elimination method,
Multiply equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 2
2x + 3y = 5.13
2x + 6y = 6.18
Subtracting,
-3y = -1.05
y = -1.05/-3= $0.35
Put y= 0.35 in equation, x + 2y = 3.09
x + 2(0.35)= 3.09
x + 0.7= 3.09
x = 3.09-0.7 = $ 2.39
So a bag of chip costs $2.39

Answer:
7.84 to 8.16 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between the actual amount in the bottle and the target amount of 8 ounces can be at most 2% of 8 ounces. That amount is ...
0.02×8 oz = 0.16 oz
The amount in the bottle can be this much higher:
8 + 0.16 = 8.16 . . . ounces
or, it can be that much lower:
8 - 0.16 = 7.84 . . . ounces
The range of values the bottle could contain is from 7.84 ounces to 8.16 ounces.
