If Sally has x books that are 2 pounds then her x books weights a total of 2x lbs.

8 books of 3 lbs weights 8*3=24lbs

All them add up to 62, therefore we can conclude to the equation :
2x+24=62
or we can simplify to
2x=38
or even
x=19

Rosemary is driving to Chicago, and she is 84 miles away. She wants to arrive in 1.5 hours. What rate of speed will she have to
