Answer:

$1.95

Step-by-step explanation:

notebook = n

pencil = p

3n + 2p = 5.10

2n + 3p = 4.65

multiply top equation by 2 and bottom by 3

6n + 4p = 10.20

6n +9p = 13.95

subtract bottom equation from the top equation

-5p = -3.75

divide by 5, negatives cancel out

p  = 0.75

sub p into either equation, I chose the original top equation

3n + 2(0.75) = 5.10

3n + 1.50 = 5.10

subtract 1.50 from both sides

3n = 3.60

divide both sides by 3

n = 1.20

p = 0.75

n + p = 1.95 (the fourth option)

Factorise the following 4(x-1)²-9 need solution
kumpel [21]

Answer:x= 5/2 x= -1/2


Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-1)2-9

4(x2-2x+1) - 9

4x2 - 8x + 4 - 9

4x2 - 8x - 5

4x2 +2x - 10x - 5

2x(2x+1) - 5(2x+1)

(2x-5)(2x+1)

therefore, x= 5/2 x= -1/2
