Let the number of comic books be X
if we add 14 to X = 24
so we will find the value of X to get half initial number of comic books William had.
14+X=24
X=24-14
X=10
so the total innitial number of comic books William had is 10+10=20 books.

The advantage of the graphing calculator is that you just have to find two independent equations, introduce them in the calculator and it will find the intersection point ot the two graphs.

The equations that you have to introduce are:

1) y = 2.25x + 24

2) y = 2.75x + 23

The algebraic solution, which will give you the same coordinates of the intersection point of the graphs is

2.25x + 24 = 2.75x + 23

2.75x - 2.25x = 24 - 23

0.5x = 1 => x 1 /0.5 = 2.

It is a linear equation but i don't know how to set the equation up , need help​
ryzh [129]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of novels

y = number of dictionaries

x = 8y

88x + 208y = 13680

now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us

88(8y) + 208y = 13680

704y + 208y = 13680

912y = 13680

y = 13680/912 = 15

x = 8y = 8×15 = 120

so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.

RoseWind [281]
Hi there!

Sometimes, like you said, you might don't get the exact answer when you justified your answer. In this case, you need to take the nearest number. So if you got 11 then 12 is the nearest number, just go for it.

Or go back and start over and see if you didn't miss anything.


I hope this helps!
