Putting in (ii), we get

           ...(v)

Putting in (iii), we get

Multiply both sides by 2.

   ..(vi)

Subtracting (vi) from (v), we get

Putting x=5 in (vi), we get

Putting x=5 and y=1 in (iv), we get

So, .

Therefore, the cost of a pizza is $5, cost of a liter of soda is $1 and cost of salad is $3.
