Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

5.64/12= .47 but that box cost 10cents more than box B so you then you subtract .10 and get .37 per ounce for box B

The cost of juice B per ounce is $0.37.

Given to us,

At a certain store, juice A costs $0.10 more per ounce than juice B.

12-ounce bottle of juice A = $5.64.

For 1 ounce of juice A = [tex]\bold{\dfrac{Cost\ of\ a\ Juice\ A}{weight\ of\ juice}}[/tex]

                                     =  [tex]\bold{\dfrac{\$ 5.64}{12\ ounces}}[/tex]

                                     =  $0.47 / ounce.

Therefore, the value of Juice A is $0.47 for 1 ounce.

As given, juice A costs $0.10 more per ounce than juice B,

Cost of juice A per ounce - Cost of juice B per ounce = $0.10

$0.47  -  Cost of juice B per ounce = $0.10

Cost of juice B per ounce = $0.47-$0.10

                                          =  $0.37

Hence, the cost of juice B per ounce is $0.37.
