Let x be the pens and y be the pencils
Given:
Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95.
Total pens and pencils is 22
So,
----------------(1)
And he bought all utensils for $11.95. and each pen for 75 cents and pencils for 40 cents.
------------(2)
solve equation 1 and equation 2 for x and y.
From equation 1.

----------------(3)
put y value in equation 2.







Now substitute x value in equation 3.


So, he buy 13 pencils.
2/4=1/2 and 4/8
1/3=2/6 and 3/9
1/4=2/8 and 3/12
Answer:
A. n = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
S = n² + n
When S = 30:
n² + n = 30
Subtract 30 from both sides: n² + n - 30 = 0
Factorize: (n - 5)(n + 6) = 0
Therefore n = 5 or -6
As n > 2, then n = 5 only
