There are no answers to this question now, and my answer was deleted as "plagiarism" even though I did it from scratch, but to help you out I'll do it again, and hopefully they'll see how a simple problem is going to be the same solution and perhaps involve the same text as something else, even enough to set off a plagiarism detecting program, but certainly not enough that a human looking at it wouldn't be able to discern that.

Emily is making a punch that contains 75% apple juice and the rest ginger ale. 
p = a + g
so:
p = a + 2

a=0.75p

Substitute p-2 in for A to get the equation with one variable:
p-2=0.75p  <<----- this is the answer for part A)
.25p=2    <<------ take 0.75p from both sides and add 2 to both sides.
p=8  <-- divide 2 by .25

a=p-g 
so
a=8-2 
a=6  <<-- this is the answer to part B.


The quantity of the apple juice present in the punch will be equal to 6 litres.

Emily is making a punch that contains 75% apple juice and the rest ginger ale.

p  =  a + g

p  = a + 2

a  =   0.75p

Substitute p - 2 in for A to get the equation with one variable:

p  -  2  =   0.75p  

.25p  =  2    

p  =  8

a   =   p   -    g

a  =   6 liters

Therefore the quantity of the apple juice present in the punch will be equal to 6 litres.
