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)

Art [367]
Where an, an-1,a2, a1, a0 are constants. We call the term containing the highest power of x the leading term, and we call an the leading coefficient. The degree of the polynomial is the power of x in the leading term. We have already seen degree 0, 1, and 2 polynomials which were the constant, linear, and quadratic functions, respectively. Degree 3, 4, and 5
