Answer:

(x, y) = (-11, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can subtract 3 times the second equation from the first to eliminate y.

(7x +9y) -3(x +3y) = (-41) -3(1)

4x = -44

x = -11

Substituting into the second equation gives ...

-11 +3y = 1

3y = 12

y = 4

The solution is (x, y) = (-11, 4).

shutvik [7]

90 books would be left I believe I just took 250/9 since it would take 9 quarters to make $2.50 and since 75% was gone that would mean 25% is left so your answer is 90 unless it’s not but I believe it’s right.
