Answer:

  $1.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the cost of a notebook. Jenna's purchase is ...

  4n +3(n -1.15) = 9.85

  7n - 3.45 = 9.85 . . . . . simplify

  7n = 13.30 . . . . . . . . . . add 3.45

  n = 1.90 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

The cost of a notebook is $1.90.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The cost of a folder is 1.90 -1.15 = 0.75. The total purchase is ...

  4(1.90) +3(0.75) = 7.60 +2.25 = 9.85

The difference between two numbers is 15. If 8 is added to twice the greater number, the result is 4 less than 3 times the lesse
SashulF [63]
<h3><u>The value of the larger number, x, is 57.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the smaller number, y, is equal to 42.</u></h3>

x - y = 15

2x + 8 = 3y - 4

We can quickly get a temporary value for x by altering the original equation.

x - y = 15

<em><u>Add y to both sides.</u></em>

x = 15 + y

Now that we have a value of x, we can find the exact value of y.

2(15 + y) + 8 = 3y - 4

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

30 + 2y + 8 = 3y - 4

<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>

38 + 2y = 3y - 4

<em><u>Subtract 2y from both sides.</u></em>

38 = y - 4

<em><u>Add 4 to both sides.</u></em>

y = 42

Now that we know the exact value of y, we can plug it back into the original equation.

x - 42 = 15

<em><u>Add 42 to both sides.</u></em>

x = 57
