There are 8 weeks and 18 books. therefore you would multiply these numbers together.
the answer would be 144 different combinations.
not sure about the permutation or combination notation, but I got you on the first part!

Answer:
$3400
Step-by-step explanation:
The way these tax tables are structured, you pay 3% on the first $10,000, 5% on the next $40,000, and 5.5% on the remaining $20,000 above $50,000.
tax = 0.03·10,000 +0.05·(50,000 -10,000) +0.055·(70,000 -50000)
= 300 + 2000 +1100
= 3400 . . . dollars
The tax owed on $70,000 is $3,400.

<em>Additional comment</em>
I like to rewrite this sort of table to a different format:
- 3% of income . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . applies for income ≤ 10,000
- (5% of income) -$200 . . . . . . . . applies for 10,000 < income ≤ 50,000
- (5.5% of income) -$450 . . . . . . .applies for 50,000 < income ≤ 100,000
For an income of $70,000, the tax computation using this form is one multiplication and one addition, rather than 3 multiplications and 4 additions as used when navigating the given table.
The answer will be the last one as it equals 4x + 3. this means that the equation will be parallel and does not have a solution.
