A note book costs 3$ (Then the pen costs 1$ as a bonus:P) 3+3+1=7 and 3+1+1+1+1+1=8 Hope that helps:)

Let x be the price of the notebook. Let y be the price of the pen.

2x+y=7
x+5y=8

The equation x+5y=8 is the equivalent to 2x+10y=16.

Subtract the equation 2x+y=7 from 2x+10y=16 to get 

9y=9

Divide each side by 9.

y=1.

Since 1 notebook and 5 pens in $8, and each pen is $1, 5 pens is $5.

Therefore, 1 notebook costs $3 because 8-5=3.
