Answer:

each book costs $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of each book be $x

cost of buying 8 books = $8x

It is given that with an original amount of $116, after buying 8 books, he had $12 left over. Hence,

$8x + $12 = $116   (dropping the $ signs)

8x + 12 = 116

8x = 116 - 12

8x = 104

x = 13  (each book costs $13)

Answer:

he possibly spent $13 on order to end up with $12 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) look. at the number 116 you can use a calculator.

2) if 14 only leaves you with nothing you take it away

3) add 13 + 8X that should give you 104

4). substract 116-104 your total should be $12

I hope I helped you.

Bad White [126]
C + a = 132.....a = 132 - c
5.10c + 9.60a = 898.20

5.10c + 9.60(132 - c) = 898.20
5.10c + 1267.20 - 9.60c = 898.20
5.10c - 9.60c = 898.20 - 1267.20
-4.50c = - 369
c = -369/-4.50
c = 82 <=== child tickets sold
