3 Mixture Notes Paper 1) Les spent $4.40 for several pencils costing 10 cents each and some notebooks costing 80 cents each. He bought 8 more pencils than notebooks. How many notebooks did he buy? x + 81010(x + 8) x8080(x) 440 Quantity ∙ cost = total value Pencils Notebooks Mixture 10(x + 8) + 80(x) = 440 10x + 80 + 80x = 440 90x + 80 = 440 90x = 360 x = 4 notebooks Multiply across Add down so 12 pencils
