Solution:

we are given that

Tory goes shopping and buys pencils and notebooks

Tory buys a total of 8 items, p of which are pencils.

So Number of Notebooks

Also we are given that each pencil costs $0.29 and each notebook costs $2.59.

So Total spending on pencil can be given by the expression=$0.29P

The Total spending on the Notebook can be given by the expression=$2.59(8-P)

Total spending all together=$0.29P+$2.59(8-P)

Since we are given that Tory's bill is $9.22

So we can write

Hence Tory Buys 5 Pencils.
