A) 3x (you substitute the g equation into the f one by putting it in the x value for f)
b) x (do the same thing, but switch the letters)
8/6 = 14/x
8x = 84
x = 10.5
The length of GD = 10.5
** I think that is right not positive
X = pencils, y = pens
8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75
4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
