answer to the problem is x=2/3
It can't be written in any lower term since they do not share a common factor
Let s = #small notebooks
Let L = #large notebooks
We Can set up two equations from the info given.
s + L = 6 bought 6 notebooks total
8s + 10L = 56 spent $56
Solve equation 1 for one variable.
L = 6-s
Plug 6-s in equation 2 in place of L
and solve for s
8s + 10(6-s) = 56
8s + 60 - 10s = 56
-2s + 60 = 56
-2s = -4
s = (-4)/(-2)
s = 2
We know s+L = 6 and s=2
2+L = 6
L = 4
4 large notebooks and 2 small notebooks
were purchased
(1,2)
The solution is where the lines intersect so you can see they intersect at (1,2)
Answer:
the one you have selected is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
just remember when a number has absolute value bars around them it basically just makes it positive.
