Hello Guest!
The price of a bucket is x.
The price of a box is y.
\(4x+6y=$\ 46.50\\ x+y=$\ 9.75\)
\(x=$\ 9.75-y\\ 4($\ 9.75-y)+6y=$\ 46.50\\ 2y=$\ 46.50-4\times $\ 9.75\\ \color{blue}y=$\ 3.75\\ x=$\ 9.75-$\ 3.75\\ \color{blue}x=$\ 6.00 \)
\(\)\(Two\ large\ buckets\ of\ popcorn\ cost\ $\ 12.00.\\ Three\ boxes\ of\ candy\ cost\ $\ 11.25.\)
