a one-cup serving of orange juice contains 3 mg less than four times the amount of vitamin C as a one-cup serving of pineapple juice. servings of the two juices contain a total of 122 mg of vitamin C. how many milligrams of vitamin C are in a serving of each type of juice?

X= mg of vit C in orange juice ( 1 cup)
Y= mg of vit C in pine. Juice (1 cup)
a one-cup serving of orange juice contains 3 mg less than four times the amount of vitamin C as a one-cup serving of pineapple juice
X=4y-3
servings of the two juices contain a total of 122 mg
X+y= 122
------------solve by substitution
(4y-3)+y=122
5y-3=122
5y=125
Y=25
X=4(25)-3=97
97 mg in orange juice, 25 mg in pineapple.
Hoping this helps!
