Sarah,

Let x = cost of notebook

let y = cost of thumbdrive

For Troy   5x + 5y = 75

For Lisa    2x + 6y = 78

Troy's equation let's divide it by 5 and get

x+ y = 15     multiply by -2

-2x -2y  = -30

2x + 6y = 78    Add equations

      4y = 48

Solve for y.  Then plug it in one of the original equations and solve for x.  Check by plugging into the other original equations
