Let's let..
s=Sale price per pack
c=Cost savings

Answer 1

C=1.59-s  hope this helps

Answer 2

The required equation is c = 1.59 - s

Explanation:

Here, s represents the sales price per pack and c represents the cost saving,

Also, the regular price per pack = $ 1.59,

Since,

Cost saving = Regular price - sales price

⇒ c = 1.59 - s

Which is the required equation that is used to determine how much money is saved if the pack is bought today.
