Answer:

The price of a notebook is $0.8 and the price of a pencil is $0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

n ---> the price of a notebook

p ---> the price of a pencil

we have

[tex]7n+4p=6.40[/tex] ----> equation A

[tex]2n+19p=5.40[/tex] ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

The solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (0.8,0.2)

see the attached figure

therefore

The price of a notebook is $0.8 and the price of a pencil is $0.2
