I WILL MARK AS BRANLIEST! Chad is packing to go to college he packed 6 Mario games and nine brand new textbooks in a box the total weight of the box was 21 pounds realizing the box still had room and how strong he is, he put two more games in the box the new weight of the box is 22 pounds

What is the weight of one textbook and what is the weight of one game.

0.5 pounds is one game

2 pounds is one textbook

Step-by-step explanation:

g = games

t = textbooks

Let's start with how much a game weighs. We know that when Chad added two more games the weight of the box increased by one pound (it was previously 21 pounds and then went to 22 when the two games were added). This means one game equals half of a pound (or 0.5 lbs.)...

 -> if you divide one side by two, you must do the same to the other.

Now that we know the weight of the games, we can figure out the weight of the textbooks.

-> 6 games and 9 textbooks weigh 21 pounds.

Plugging in that each game is 0.5 pounds...

That means that each textbook equals 2 pounds.

I hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
