    Answer:

    $6 = cost of small box

    $8 = cost of large box

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let s = cost of small box

         l  = cost of large box

    (1)    12s + 3l = 96            (2)     6s + 6l = 84

        Multiply by -2                     -24s – 6l = -192

                                                    -18s   = – 108

                                                         s = $6 = cost of small box

          12(6) + 3l = 96

             72 + 3l = 96

                     3l = 24

                       l = $8 = cost of large box
