Explanation:
With this word problem, we can model it into an equation which we can interpret to find values.
If we need to read 5 novels per month and n represents the amount of novels read in m months, we know that n will be the dependent variable (y) as it's a direct function of the number of months. This makes m the independent variable (x).
Since there are 5 novels a month, the equation will be 5 times the number of months equals the number of novels per month.

![n=5m](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/high-school/abryf0btm101v93ir7ringfmh1on7msidc.png)
We can now substitute inside the equation with 11 months as m, and find the value of n.
Hope this helped!
