An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The cost of a new book is $7.43, while the cost of an old book is $8.86.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given the cost of 14 used books is $124. Therefore, the cost of a single used book is,

Cost of single used book(u) = 124/14 = $8.86

Also, the cost of 12 used books and 4 new books is $136. Therefore, the equation can be written as,

12u + 4n = 136

12(8.85) + 4n = 136

106.2 + 4n = 136

n = $7.43

Hence, the cost of a new book is $7.43, while the cost of an old book is $8.86.

Solve by graphing.
const2013 [10]

Answer:

(4,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x - 4 -------eqn 1

4y = x + 12 ------eqn 2

From eqn 1 y = 2x - 4; insert in eqn 2

4 (2x-4) = x + 12 (open the bracket)

8x - 16 = x + 12 (taking like figures to the same side, sign changes)

8x - x = 12 + 16

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

From eqn 1

y = 2x - 4

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4

(x,y) = (4,4)
