    Melanie has 137 dollars in total.

    Let each book cost=x

    No of books=17

    So total cost of 17 books=17x

    After buying books Melanie left with 11 dollars

    According to question the required equation will be=

    17x+11=137

    17x=137-11=126

    x=8

    i. e Price of each book is 8 dollars. (Answer)
