Answer: Price of Math Textbook= $42.5,  Price of the Novel= $11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = price of the Novel.

Price of Math Textbook = 8+3x

As per given , we have

Price of Math Textbook + Price of the Novel = $54

⇒ 8+3x+x = 54

⇒ 8+4x=54

⇒ 4x = 46     [subtract 8 from both sides]

⇒ x = 11.5

Price of Math Textbook = 8+3(11.5) = 8+34.5= $42.5

Hence, Price of Math Textbook= $42.5,  Price of the Novel= $11.5

Compare Look at these equations. Do you think they are all linear equations? Can they
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Yes they can all be written in y = mx + b. You just have to move the terms around.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x -3, this is already in slope-intercept form

Now, y - 2 = x + 2: We can add 2 on both sides to cancel out the one on the left side:

y - 2 = x + 2

y - 2 + 2 = x + + 2

y = x + 4 <-- This is in y = mx + b form

Now the last one, 3x = 9 + 3y

We can first divide all terms by 3,

3x = 9 + 3y

/3     /3   /3

x = 3 + y: Then we can subtract 3 from both sides:

x - 3 = 3 + y - 3

x - 3 = y

These are all linear equations because none of the x's have bigger powers than 1. x^2 is a quadratic equation and x^3 is cubic equation.

Help me pleaseeeeeeeee
topjm [15]

Answer:

x = 6, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sally's age be x and Tomas's age be y.

Sum of Sally's age plus twice Tomas's age: x + 2y = 12

Difference of Sally's age and Tomas's age: x - y = 3

Multiply the second equation by two and add it to the first equation to get

3x = 18, which means x = 6.

Plug 6 in for x in the second equation to get 6 - y = 3, which means y = 3.
