Answer:
$2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the total cost of a notebook and pen together. We don't need to find their individual costs in order to answer the question.
Sometimes we get bored solving systems of equations in the usual ways. For this question, let's try this.
The first equation has one more notebook than pens. The second equation has 4 more notebooks than pens. If we subtract 4 times the first equation from the second, we should have equal numbers of notebooks and pens.
(8n +4p) -4(3n +2p) = (16.00) -4(6.50)
-4n -4p = -10.00 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
n + p = -10.00/-4 = 2.50 . . . . divide by the coefficient of (n+p)
The total cost for one notebook and one pen is $2.50.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The first equation has 1 more notebook than 2 (n+p) combinations, telling us that a notebook costs $6.50 -2(2.50) = $1.50. Then the pen is $2.50 -1.50 = $1.00.
One could solve for the costs of a notebook (n) and a pen (p) individually, then add them together to answer the question. We judge that to be more work.

Answer:
Our juices’ journey to your table starts on the thousands of acres of citrus farms dotting Western North America. The process begins when the fruit is harvested at its sweetest, then sent to our plant to be pressed and bottled. From the plant, our juice is sent to retailers throughout the West, including Ralph’s, Bristol Farms and Pavilions to name a few. This lateral integration gets the freshest, best tasting juices to our customers as quickly as possible, and makes Perricone Farms a true “Farm-Bottle-Table” company. You’ll taste the difference with every sip.
Answer:
8/35 cubic inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume is length x width x height. To find the answer, we must multiply all values together. 2/3 times 3/5 ix 6/15. Let's simplify this before multiplying further. 6/15 can also be written as 2/5. 2/5 times 4/7 is 8/35 which cannot be simplified. 8/35 is the final answer.
