Hello there! I am EnjoyingLife, and I hope you find my answer helpful.
First of all, since all books cost less than $5, the most expensive a book could be is $4.99 (remember, less than, not less than or equal to)
Now, let's write an inequality to represent the cost of books.
We know that all books cost less than $5.
We have a sign for "less than". It's "<"
Thus,
p<5
Hope it helps!
Have an awesome day!
Good luck!

Answer:
126
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the initial number, we need to create the expression that is being mentioned and solve for the initial value by applying the opposite expressions to isolate the variable.
(((x / 42) * 8) + 10) = 34 ... subtract 10 from both sides
((x / 42) * 8) = 24 ... divide both sides by 8
(x / 42) = 3 ... multiply both sides by 42
x = 126
Finally, we can see that the initial value was 126
