36 divided by 2 is 18
That mean each basketball is $18
18 dollars multiplied by 3 basketballs is 54
Three basket balls cost $54
The square would be 100.
The semicircle you will use the formula πr^2/2.
That would mean you would take the 3.14x5^2/2.
(3.14x5x5)/2
(3.14x25)/2
78.5/2
=39.25
So the total area would be 139.25
It is either top left or bottom right, I cannot see the numbers clearly.
The answer is: " 40 books " .

Explanation:
____________________________________________
Let "x" equal the number of books that Jill started with. Solve for "x" :
____________________________________________
x – (1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
1x – (1/2)) = (1/2)x ;
(1/2)x + 16 = 36 ;
Subtract "16" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
(1/2)x + 16 – 16 = 36 – 16 ;
(1/2)x = 20 ;
Multiply each side of the equation by "2" ;
2*(1/2)x = 20 * 2 ;
to get: x = 40 .
