Answer:
the prices were $0.05 and $1.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' and 'b' represent the costs of the two sodas. The given relations are ...
a + b = 1.10 . . . . the total cost of the sodas was $1.10
a - b = 1.00 . . . . one soda costs $1.00 more than the other one
__
Adding these two equations, we get ...
2a = 2.10
a = 1.05 . . . . . divide by 2
1.05 -b = 1.00 . . . . . substitute for a in the second equation
1.05 -1.00 = b = 0.05 . . . add b-1 to both sides
The prices of the two sodas were $0.05 and $1.05.

<em>Additional comment</em>
This is a "sum and difference" problem, in which you are given the sum and the difference of two values. As we have seen here, <em>the larger value is half the sum of the sum and difference</em>: a = (1+1.10)/2 = 1.05. If we were to subtract one equation from the other, we would find <em>the smaller value is half the difference of the sum and difference</em>: b = (1.05 -1.00)/2 = 0.05.
This result is the general solution to sum and difference problems.

First you take off $2.00 of every $18.95 of the game and you get $16.95 you add 16.95 three times and after that you add 11.50 twice and then the sum of both the earbuds and the video games and you add both together and you get $73.85
