thank u ppl jus got the answer by my own

OpenStudy (aripotta):

cool. can you tell us the answer?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

just curious

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm.. yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the ques says that 6 erasers and 2 pens is for $15 so let us consider the cost of eraser and pen be E and P respectively => 6E+2P = 15 then , it says 4 more erasers for $14 than pens for $9 that is , if the number of pens is 'n' then the number of erasers is '(4+n)' nP=9 ,(4+n)E=14
