Answer:

[tex]\$32[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the game be [tex]x[/tex]. Since one-fourth of the cost of the game is equal to 8 dollars, we have the following equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}x=8[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4 to isolate and solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x=8\cdot 4=\boxed{\$32}[/tex]
