Answer: 48oz = $1.68, 32oz = $0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the price of the 48oz bottle and B the price for the 32oz bottle.

We are told that:

A = B + $0.88

------

The unit price is defined as the $ per oz.  

Let Au be the unit price for the 48oz size, and

Bu is the unit price for the 32oz size.

[This means that Au*(48) = A and Bu*(32) = B]

We are told that:

Bu + $0.01 = Au

=======

Find the cost of each.

A = B + $0.88

Au*(48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

Substitute (Bu + $0.01) for Au

(Bu + $0.01)*(48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

(48Bu + $0.48) = Bu*(32) + $0.88

16Bu + $0.48 =  $0.88

16Bu  =  $0.40

Bu = $0.025

The 32 oz bottle sells for $0.025/oz, or $0.80 a bottle

B = $0.80

Since A = B + $0.88

A =  $0.80 + $0.88

A = $1.68

Find the solution for the system of linear equations by substitution: 2x - y = 3 y − x = 1
Leviafan [203]

The solution for the system of linear equations 2x- y = 3 and y - x = 1 are x = 4 and y = 5

<h3>What are linear equations?</h3>

Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change, slope or gradient

<h3>How to determine the solution to the system?</h3>

A system of linear equations is a collection of at least two linear equations.

In this case, the system of equations is given as

2x- y = 3

y - x = 1

Make y the subject in the second equation, by adding x to both sides of the equation

y - x + x = x + 1

This gives

y = x + 1

Substitute y = x + 1 in 2x- y = 3

2x- x - 1 = 3

Evaluate the like terms

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 in y = x + 1

y = 4 + 1

Evaluate

y = 5

Hence, the solution for the system of linear equations 2x- y = 3 and y - x = 1 are x = 4 and y = 5
