If person( 1 ) buys X books for $P each, how much will the total bill be (assuming no sales tax)?
Cost of each book x Number of books bought + Cost of shipping = Bill total
Cost of each book = P
Number of books bought = X
Cost of shipping = Q
Bill total = r
P \cdot X + Q = r
P \cdot X + Q = R

If there are X left before winter, what is the minimum units of energy the bear needs to store up per month?
Months left before winter x Units of energy stored per month + Units of energy already stored > Units of energy needed
Months left before winter = X
Units of energy already stored = Q
Units of energy needed = R
Units of energy stored per month = p
Xp + Q > R
Xp > R - Q
p > \dfrac{R - Q}{X}
p > P
person( 1 ) needs to store up at least P units of energy before the winter.
