Explanation:

Step1: Define variables

Let $s$ = number of soda bottles, $j$ = number of juice bottles

Step2: Total bottles equation

Total bottles = 11: $s + j = 11$

Step3: Total sugar equation

Total sugar = 445g: $45s + 20j = 445$

Answer:

Let $s$ = number of soda bottles, Let $j$ = number of juice bottles
System of Equations:
$s + j = 11$
$45s + 20j = 445$
