Answer:
Each game is 0.5 pounds and each textbook is 2 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents games and y represents textbooks you can use the equation
6x + 9y = 21
we know that if the box was 21 pounds and she adds two games and it's now 22 pounds that each game is 0.5 pounds so x = 0.5
after plugging in the x value the equation is:
3 + 9y = 21
Combine like terms and it's 9y = 18
Divide 18 by 9 and you get:
Y= 2
Hope this helps! Good luck on your test.
