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)

"EXPLAIN PLEASE" Which equation does the graph below represent
ch4aika [34]
The answer to your problem is A due to the slope of your line being -1/3x.

You can find this slope by picking two points on your graph [i.e. (-1,3) and (0,0)].

Find the difference between the two points, which is a one for the x value and a three for the y values. Now you have a slope of 1/3.

But wait! The slope is downwards, therefore a negative must be applied to your slope.

This provides you with a slope of -1/3x, therefore:

y = -1/3x
