Answer: The value of b is $0.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total bottles co0llected = 14+9 =23

Payment for each bottle = b

Total payment she will get = 23b

One -time service fee = $0.25

She has left = $3.20

According to the question,

23b - 0.25 = 3.20

⇒23b = 3.20+0.25

⇒23b = 3.45

⇒b = 0.15   [divide both sides by 23]

Cost of each bottle = $ 0.15

hence, the value of b is $0.15.
