The least amount they could charge for each agenda book is $8

How to determine the least amount they could charge?

Represent the selling price of each book with x.

So, the total selling price of the 350 books is:

Total = 350x

The school wants to make a profit of $1500.

So, the total revenue is

Revenue = $1137.50 + $1500

Evaluate

Revenue = $2637.5

The least amount they could charge is calculated as:

350x = $2637.5

Divide both sides by 350

x = $2637.5/350

Evaluate

x = $7.535

Approximate

x = $8

Hence, the least amount they could charge for each agenda book is $8
