To solve this, we’ll first need to set it as a system of equations.

First, let’s let
x = No. of $32 books purchased.
y = No. of $44 books purchased.

We know that 54 books were sold in total and they the total cost of the books sold were 1968. Using this information we can come up with two equations.

x + y = 54
32x + 44y = 1968

We will solve this system by the substitution method. Solve the first equation for y.

y = -x + 54

Substitute this for y in your second equation.

32x + 44(-x + 54) = 1968

Distribute and add like terms.

-12x + 2376 = 1968

Solve for x.

x = 34.

Your answer should be: 34 $32 books were purchased.

Consider the surface given by
Mazyrski [523]
This is just simple. For example you have a plane of the form x=a, then you just substitute x with a, and you'll get an equation with y and z only, hence you have a 2-d trace of the intersection. It is just similar for y=b and z=c.

(1) At z=1.5, 2x^2 + 5y^2 + 1.5^2 = 4 
    2x^2 + 5y^2 = 1.75
    Now you have an ellipse in the z=1.5 plane as your trace.

(2) At x=1, 2(1)^2 + 5y^2 + z^2 = 4
    5y^2 + z^2 = 2
    Now you have an ellipse in the x=1 plane as your trace.


(3) At z=0, 2x^2 + 5y^2 + (0)^2 = 4
    2x^2 + 5y^2 = 4
    Now you have an ellipse in the z=0 plane as your trace.

(4) At y=0, 2x^2 + 5(0)^2 + z^2 = 4
    2x^2 + z^2 = 4
    Now you have an ellipse in the y=0 plane as your trace.

What is the reason for Statement 2 of the two-column proof?
torisob [31]

We have been given that PQ bisects \angle RPS. In the second statement of the given two-column proof, the statement is \angle RPQ\cong\angle QPS.

This implies that the two angles formed by bisection of angle \angle RPS by the line PQ are equal. We know that the reason for this is simple. It is the definition of bisection of an angle that the two smaller angles formed will be equal to each other.

Therefore, the reason for statement 2 of the given two column proof is c) Definition of bisect
