The number of hardback books that are on the bookshelf is 29 books.
- Let the total number of books be T.
- Let the number of hardback books be H.
- Let the number of paperback books be P.
<u>Given the following data:</u>
- Total number of books = 36 books
To determine the number of hardback books that are on the bookshelf:
Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;
The total number of books is:

The number of hardback books is 15 more than <u>twice</u> the number of paperback books:

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Step-by-step explanation:
By sum of angles on a straight line = 180°,
we have Angle A + Angle B = 180°,
Angle C + Angle D = 180°, and
Angle E + Angle F = 180°.
Hence Angles A + B + C + D + E + F = (180°) + (180°) + (180°) = 540°.
Answer: The answer is A

If I calculated it correctly:
17+27 is 44
17+3 and 27+3
20 & 30
20/30 is 2/3
Therefore the answer is:
Ron is 17 and John is 27!
