The expression to find the number of notebooks James bought would be written as:
Number of notebooks = total spent / cost per item
Number of notebooks = (2y^2 + 6) / <span>(y^2 − 1)
</span><span>If y = 3, then the number of notebooks bought would be:
</span>Number of notebooks = (2y^2 + 6) / (y^2 − 1)
Number of notebooks = (2(3)^2 + 6) / (3^2 − 1)
Number of notebooks = 3 pieces<span>

Answer:
(d) 428,820,000 pounds of garbage
Step-by-step explanation:
Your calculator or spreadsheet can give you the product of two numbers expressed in scientific notation.
(1.643×10^3 lb/resident) × (2.61×10^5 residents) = 4.28823×10^(3+5) lb
≈ 428.82×10^6 lb
= 428,820,000 lb . . . of garbage
You read a number line from left to right therefore numbers on the left are lesser than numbers on the right

Define x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Let the dryer be x.
Dryer = x
Washer = x -53
--------------------------------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
--------------------------------------------------------------
The washer and the dryer cost $847
⇒ x + x - 53 = 847
--------------------------------------------------------------
Solve x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
x + x - 53 = 847
2x - 53 = 847
2x = 847 + 53
2x = 900
x = 450
--------------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of dryer and washer :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dryer = x = $450
Washer = x = 450 - 53 = 397
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Dryer = $450
