Let the cost of one book= x cents
Let the money john have= y cents

According to the question,

45x=y                                               ...eq(1)
(45+5)(x-5)=y                                  
50(x-5)=y                                         
50x-250=y                                        ...eq(2)

On subtracting (1) from (2).
(50x-250)-45x=y-y
5x-250=0
x=250/5
x=50

Thus, cost of each book is 50 cents and john has 2250 cents.

Hope it helps.
Don't feel shy in saying thx if it helps.

What is the amplitude of this graph?
Alexxandr [17]
<h3>Answer:  2</h3>

The lowest point has a y coordinate of 2. The highest point has a y coordinate of 6. The difference is 6-2 = 4. Cut this in half to get 4/2 = 2 which is the amplitude. This is the vertical distance from the midline (y = 4) to either the peak point or the valley point.
