Answer:

A. 500 + n 3 < 1300

B. 266

Step-by-step explanation:

500 dollars por labor and running and 3 more dolars every book the make should be less than 1300$

500 + n 3 < 1300

n 3 < 1300 - 500

n < 800 / 3

n < 266,667

As books are units and should be natural numbers, then the gratest number of books is 266.
