How many dollars more is the price of 7 bottles of brand B oil than the price of 7 bottles of brand A oil? (5 points)

$3
$10
$21
$29

I NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE

Answer 1

Price brand A is

13 x

because:

26 = 13 ∙ 2

39 = 13 ∙ 3

52 = 13 ∙ 4

63 = 13 ∙ 5

Difference of price brand B and price brand A:

Δ = 16 x - 13 x

Δ = 3 x

For x = 7

Δ = 3 ∙ 7 = 21

Answer 2

My make one typo.

65 = 13 ∙ 5
