Let p be the prize of a pen and m the prize of a mechanical pencils. If you buy six pens and one mechanical pencil, you spend 6p+m. We know that this equals 9, because you get 1$ change from a 10$ bill.
Similarly, if you buy four pens and two mechanical pencils, you spend 4p+2m, which is 8$, because now you get a $2 change. Put these equation together in a system:
Now, if you multiply the first equation by 2, the system becomes
Subtract the second equation from the first:
Plug this value into the first equation to get

<span>I have been a high school/jr high math teacher for the past 13 years. I am happy to explain how to proceed with this problem.
A square is a figure where ALL sides are exactly the same. The find the area of the square you would multiply one side times another side. You would be multiplying a number times itself. So if you already have the area, you would take the square root to find your answer. When you do, you end up with 21.21 square inches rounded to the nearest hundredth.</span>
