Alejandro bought 6 notebooks and 2 binders for $23.52. Cassie bought 3 notebooks and 4 binders for $25.53. What was the cost, in dollars, of 1 notebook?​

Sagot :

Answer:

1 notebook $2.39

Step-by-step explanation:

n=notebook     b= binder

6n +2b =23.52

3n +4b = 25.53

MULTIPLY THE FIRST BY -2 AND ADD BOTH

-12n -4b = -47.04

3n + 4b = 25.53

(b is eliminated since 4b -4b=0)

-9n =  -21.51

9n = 21.51

n = 2.39
