Four glasses of the special and two glasses of milk costs $28.00 and three glasses of the special and four glasses of milk costs $26.25. How much does each glass cost?

Answer provided by our tutors

let


s = the cost of 1 glass special

m = the cost of 1 glass milk


four glasses of the special and two glasses of milk costs $28.00


4s + 2m = 28


three glasses of the special and four glasses of milk costs $26.25


3s + 4m = 26.25


by solving the system of equations


4s + 2m = 28

3s + 4m = 26.25


we find


s = $5.95


m = $2.1
