If we let p and t be the masses of the paper and textbook, respectively, the equations that would best represent the given in this item are:
(1) 20p + 9t = 44.4
(2) (20 + 5)p + (9 + 1)t = 51
The values of p and t from the equation are 0.6 and 3.6, respectively. Thus, each paperback weighs 0.6 pounds and each textbook weighs 3.6 pounds.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
be the number of bags with 8 onions and let 
be the number of bags with 3 onions. We have the following system of equations:
Subtracting from both sides of the first equation, we get 
. Substitute this into the second equation:
Therefore, the number of 8-onion bags is:
Thus, the chef got 4 8-onion bags and 3 3-onion bags.
