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.
Millie can only make 5 quilt squares. If she needs 1 yard of blue fabric and 1 yard of pink fabric to make 1 quilt square and only has 5 yards of blue fabric and 7 yards of pink fabric, she can only make 5 quilt squares.
The probability that exactly 4 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation is 5.184%, and the probability that all of the selected adults believe in reincarnation is 7.776%.
Given that based on a poll, 60% of adults believe in reincarnation, to determine, assuming that 5 adults are randomly selected, what is the probability that exactly 4 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation, and what is the probability that all of the selected adults believe in reincarnation, the following calculations must be performed:
- 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.4 = X
- 0.36 x 0.36 x 0.4 = X
- 0.1296 x 0.4 = X
- 0.05184 = X
- 0.05184 x 100 = 5.184
- 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 = X
- 0.36 x 0.36 x 0.6 = X
- 0.1296 x 0.6 = X
- 0.07776 = X
- 0.07776 x 100 = 7.776
Therefore, the probability that exactly 4 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation is 5.184%, and the probability that all of the selected adults believe in reincarnation is 7.776%.
