Joanna spent $24.96 on notebooks and pencils. Notebooks are $2.06 each and pencils are $1.06 each. She bought a total of 16 notebooks and pencils. How many of each did she buy

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 notebooks and 8 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

you need two equation

- 24.96= 2.06n +1.06p

- 16= n + p

n= notebooks  p=pencil

so you need something that once multp gets you 24.96 and then once added gets 16. Another note you cant have half of a notebook or a pencil so you can put 8 in each equation and they both equal your how much you spent and how many you got.
