To answer this kind of question, you need to insert the first equation into second equation or vice versa. The equation from the question should be:

1. 3 paperback books +  5 hardcover book = $80.10
2. 7 paperback books + 4 hardcover book= $100.65

It would be easier to convert the 1st equation into
5 hardcover book = $80.10- 3 paperback books
hardcover book= $16.02- 0.6 paperback books

Then insert it to 2nd equation:
7 paperback books + 4 ($16.02- 0.6 paperback books)= $100.65
7 paperback books + $64.08- 2.4 paperback books= $100.65
4.6 paperback books = $100.65-  $64.08= $36.57
paperback book= $7.95

Insert paperback book price to the first equation to find the hardcover book price
3 paperback books +  5 hardcover book = $80.10
3 ($7.95)+  5 hardcover book = $80.10
5 hardcover book = $80.10 - $23.85= $56.25
hardcover book = $11.25

Then one paperback and one hardcoverbook= $7.95 + $11.25= $19.20

A regular hexagon rotates counterclockwise around its center. It turns through angles greater than 0° and less or equal to 360°.

there are 6 sides to a hexagon

360/6 = 60 degrees

 so it will map onto itself at 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 & 360

eduard
<span>If Mary earns 7$ an hour, we need to multiplicate 7$ by the number of hours worked for the entire week so we can get the salary per week. And when we want to know how many hours she had worked, we have to "transform" the equation : Salary per week = salary per hours x worked hours Here, we know to informations : salary per hours and salary per week. Worked hours = salary per week / salary per day Worked hours = 143.50 / 7 Worked hours = 20.5 The greatest number of hours thats he works is 20h30.</span>
