A notebook costs £1.40, a pen costs 37p , a pencil costs 24p and a sharpener costs 77p. Remi buys 2 pencils, 3 pens, 3 sharpeners and some notebooks.
He pays with £9 and receives 90p change.
How many notebooks did he buy?

Remi bought 3 notebooks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = number of notebooks.

2 pencils cost 2 * £0.24 = £0.48

3 pens cost 3 * £0.37 = £1.11

3 sharpeners cost 3 * £0.77 = £2.31

n notebooks cost n * £1.40 = £1.4n

The total cost is £9 - £0.90 = £8.1

0.48 + 1.11 + 2.31 + 1.4n = 8.1

1.4n + 3.9 = 8.1

1.4n = 4.2

n = 3

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
