peanut butter cost $0.55

Step-by-step explanation:

j=jelly

p=peanut butter

4p+7j=$6.95

8p+6j=$8.45

solve for p:

8p=8.45-6j

p=(8.45-6j)/8

substitute for p

4(8.45-6j)/8+7j=6.95

reduce

(33.8-24j)/8+7j=6.95

4.225-3j+7j=6.95

4j=6.95-4.225

4j=2.725

j=0.68125

8p+6(0.68125)=8.45

8p+4.0875=8.45

8p=4.3625

p=0.5453

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
