Answer:

Each book costs $17

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Make an expression </u>

147 total -> 147 =  

8 books -> 8x

11 left -> 11

<u>Expression:</u>  147 = 8x + 11

<u>Step 2:  Subtract both sides by 11 </u>

147 - 11 = 8x + 11 - 11

136 = 8x

<u>Step 3:  Divide both sides by 8 </u>

136 / 8 = 8x / 8

17 = x

Answer:  Each book costs $17

Answer:

$17

Step-by-step explanation:

Books = x

1. Set up an equation.

147 - 8x = 11

2. Solve for x

147 - 8x = 11

-8x = 11 - 147

-8x = -136

x = -136 / (-8)

x = 17

So, each book cost $17.

For the function defined by y = 1/x4, y varies inversely as what quantity
gregori [183]

ANSWER

y varies inversely as x exponent 4.

EXPLANATION

The inverse variation equation is given as:

y =  \frac{1}{ {x}^{4} }

We can see that there is an inverse relation between the quantity y and x.

If the it were y =  \frac{1}{ {x}^2 }, we say y varies inversely as the square of x.

Hence for the given relation,the precise definition is that, y varies inversely as x exponent 4.
