Well that wording was a bit confusing so I’m not quite sure if I’m answering this correctly.

6.95=x (paperback)

24.99=y (hardcovered)

the equation really depends on how many paperbacks or hard covered books you would want to buy

an example:

4x+1y=total

plug in the numbers and you get the total.

I hope this answers your question!
