The equation can be used to determine t, the weight of the textbooks is t = 0.7w

Given:

let

Total weight = w

Weight of notebook = n

Weight of backpack = b

Weight of textbook = t

w = n + b + t

where

n = 4 pounds

b = 2 pounds

t = 0.7w

So

w = 4 + 2 + 0.7w

w - 0.7w = 4 + 2

0.3w = 6

w = 6/0.3

w = 20

Recall,

t = 0.7w

= 0.7(20)

= 14 pounds

Therefore, the weight of the textbook is 14 pounds
