Bruce bought two books. one book costs $4.00 more than three times the other. together, the two books cost him $72.
write the statement using symbolic language

The given statement written in symbolic language is x = 3y + 4 and x + y = 72 where "x" is the cost of one book and "y" is the cost of another book

Solution:

Given that Bruce bought two books

One book costs $ 4.00 more than three times the other

Let the two books be denoted as Book A and book B

Let "x" be the cost of book A

Let "y" be the cost of Book B

From given,

One book costs $ 4.00 more than three times the other

Let Cost of book A = $ 4.00 more than three times the other book B

x = 4 + 3 times cost of Book B

x = 4 + 3y

x = 3y + 4 --- (i)

Also given that Together, the two books cost him $72

cost of book A + cost of Book B = 72

x + y = 72 (ii)

Therefore the given statement written in symbolic language is:

x = 3y + 4 and x + y = 72

2/3x + 7 = 29

step-by-step explanation:

two thirds = 2/3

plus a number = x

at least 29 = 29

there for you should get 2/3x + 7 = 29

answer: yes i agree that you should not put it on/p>

step-by-step explanation: the reason for this is that it wastes other peoples time and also make them fail as well and that is never good.
