If Connie spent $26 on 8 books, The number of hard covers she buy is 5 hard cover.

<h3>Number of hardcover bought</h3>

Let h represent hard cover

Let p represent paperbacks

Formulate an equation

h + p= 8.......(1)

4h + 2p= 26......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by -2

-2h + -2p = -16

<u> 4h  +  2p   = 26</u>

2h  +   0p =10

2h = 10

Divide both side by 2h

h=10/2

h =5 hard covers

Paper backs

P=5-2

P=3 paper backs

Therefore If Connie spent $26 on 8 books, The number of hard covers she buy is 5 hard cover.
