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)

37 pumpkins each weighs 48 ounces
KiRa [710]
37 * 48 = 3 * (c  - 140 )+ 2 *(c  - 140 ) + ( c - 140 ) =>
37 * 48 = 6 * ( c - 140 ) =>
37 * 48 / 6 = c - 140 =>
37 * 8 = c - 140 =>
296 = c - 140 => 
c = 296 + 140 =>
c = 436 ounces.

Can someone please help me solve this?
Akimi4 [234]
A. This is the original equation: 2x + 3 - 1 = x + 5

b. 2x + 2 = x + 5 ← combined like terms on left side 
    2x + 2 - 2 = x + 5 - 2 ← used inverse operation to collect constants on right side
    2x = x + 3 ←simplified each side
    2x - x = x - x + 3 ←used inverse operation to collect variable terms on left side
    x = 3 ← simplified each side 
answer x = 3

c. 2(3) + 3 - 1 = 3 + 5
     6 + 3 - 1 = 8
       9  - 1 = 8
        8 = 8
