Let x be the mass of the paperbacks and y be the mass of the textbook.
20x + 9y = 44.4 ----------- (1)
25x + 10y = 51 -------------(2)
(1) x 10:
200x + 90y = 444 --------(1a)
(2) x 9:
225x + 90y = 459 --------(2a)
(2a) - (1a):
25x = 15
x = 0.6 -------- sub into (1)
20 (0.6) + 9y = 44.4
12 + 9y = 44.4
9y = 44.4 - 12
9y = 32.4
y = 3.6
So the paperback's mass is 0.6 pounds and textbook is 3.6 pounds
Answer:
She owe $37736.96 after 9 years .
Step-by-step explanation:
Debra borrowed $8000 at a rate of 18% compounded semiannually
We are supposed to find how much will she owe after 9 years
Principal = 8000
Rate of interest = 18% =0.18
No. of compounds per year = 2
Time = 9 years
Formula : 
Substitute the values in the formula :

A= 37736.96
Hence She owe $37736.96 after 9 years .
Answer:
The middle one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Table 1 and 2 represent a function
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
<em>Table 1</em>
x 5 10 11
y 3 9 15
<em></em>
<em>Table 2</em>
x 5 10 11
y 3 9 9
<em>Table 3</em>
x 5 10 10
y 3 9 15
Required
Determine which of the tables represent that y is a function of x
For a relation to be a function; the x values must be unique.
In other words, each x value must not be repeated;
Having said that;
Analyzing Table 1
<em>Table 1</em>
x 5 10 11
y 3 9 15
<em></em>
Note that the x rows are unique as no value were repeated;
Hence, Table 1 is a function
<em>Table 2</em>
x 5 10 11
y 3 9 9
Note that the x rows are unique as no value were repeated;
Hence, Table 2 is a function
<em>Table 3</em>
x 5 10 10
y 3 9 15
Note that the x rows are not unique because 10 was repeated twice;
Hence, Table 3 is not a function
