Problem
Al gets the disease algebritis and must take one green pill and one pink pill each day for two weeks. A green pill costs 
more than a pink pill, and Al's pills cost a total of 
for the two weeks. How much does one green pill cost?
Solution
Because there are 
days in two weeks, Al spends 
dollars per day for the cost of a green pill and a pink pill. If the green pill costs 
dollars and the pink pill 
dollars, the sum of the two costs 
should equal 
dollars. Then the cost of the green pill is 
.
