2. Aldrin bought 5 pencils and 7 notebooks. A notebook costs PhP. 10.80 more than a pencil. Write am algebraic equation showing that the total amount of the school supplies bought is PhP. 210.00.​


Sagot :

2.

Let's represent notebook as "N"

And pencil as "P"

N + P = 4.50

N + P = 4.50

N = 2P

Given N is equal to twice P, we can substitute that directly into the first equation:

(2P) + P = 4.50

3P = 4.50

P = 1.50

Now that we have P, we can in turn

substitute that into either equation.

N + (1.50) = 4.50

N = 3.00
