Answer: One DVD is $12 and one book is $1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the DVD be d and the book be b.

Case 1:

3d + 4b = $40.......(1)

Case 2:

1d + 6b = $18........... (2)

In this equations above, I intend to eliminate variable d, so I'm going to multiply the coefficient of d in (1) to multiply (2)

3 × (1d + 6b = 18)

3d + 18b = 54........ .(3)

Then, subtract (1) from (3)

3d + 18b = 54

- ( 3d + 4b = 40)

3d - 3d + 18b - 4b = 54 - 40

0 + 14b = 14

b = 14/14

b = 1.

Then substitute 1 for b in (2)

1d + 6(1) = 18

d + 6 = 18

d = 18 - 6

d = 12.

(d,b) = (12,1)

The area of a rectangle is 20 square inches. If the length is 4 inches less than 6 times the width, then find the dimensions of
Tpy6a [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width=x

Length =6x-4

As we know that in a rectangle

{\boxed{\sf Area=LB}}

  • Substitute the values

\hookrightarrow\sf x (6x-4)=20

\hookrightarrow\sf 6x^2-4x=20

\hookrightarrow\sf 6x^2-4x-20=0

  • Here a=6, b=-4, c=-20.
  • use quadratic formula

\hookrightarrow\sf x=\dfrac {1}{3}+\dfrac {1}{3}\sqrt {31} \quad or \quad \dfrac {1}{3}+\dfrac {-1}{3}\sqrt {31}
