Answer:

The number of hardback books in book sale   = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hardback books  = m

So, the number of paperback books = 3 ( number of Hardbacks)  - 12

                                                             = 3 m - 12

⇒the number of paperback books   = 3 m -12

Now, total number of  paperback books  = 162

⇒ (3m -12)  = 162

or, 3m = 162 + 12

or, 3m  = 174     ⇒  m = 174 / 3

or, m = 58

Hence, the number of hardback books  = 58

consider the function represented by the equation 16b = 4r - 12. write the equation in function notation, where b is the indepen
katovenus [111]

When you write a function in the form y=f(x), y is the dependent variable, and x is the independent variable.

So, if b is the independent variable, it means that we have to solve the expression for r.

To do so, we perform the following steps: start with

16b = 4r - 12

Add 12 to both sides

16b+12 = 4r

Divide both sides by 4:

4b+3 = r

So, we wrote the expression in the form r = f(b) = 4b+3, which means that r is the dependent variable and b is the independent variable, as requested.
