In the problem, the first equation should be represented like this base on the variable given in the problem:

20p + 9t = 44.4

with that equation, the second equation would is given by this formula, in response with the additional number of paperback and textbook

21p + 14t = 51

to get the system equation in getting the mass of each variable, you should subtract the two equation to simplified the formula.

   20p + 9t = 44.4
 - 21p + 14t = 51
-------------------------
p + 5t = 6.6 // this is the system equation that could be use in getting the mass of each object

The frequency of the musical note E3 is about 164.81 Hz.
laiz [17]
A perfect fifth above a note has a frequency ratio of 3 to 2.
Therefore, we can set the proportion:
164.81 : x = 2 : 3

which gives:
x = <span>164.81 </span>× 3 ÷ 2
   = 247.21

Hence, the perfect fifth above E₃ will have a frequency of 247.21Hz which corresponds to a B₃.
