All the sides add like a rectangle with two sides measuring 4 and two measuring 2 so you would add 4+4+2+2=12
3y+14=44
Answer: First step is to subtract 14 from each side
3y = 30 (divide each side by 3)
y = 30/3, y = 10
In each case divide the price by the number of cans.
The best buy is the lowest price.
$12.53/7 = $1.79
$5.97/3 = $1.99
$7.95/5 = $1.59
$8.34/6 = $1.39
The fourth ad, $8.34 for 6 cans results in the lowest price per can, $1.39.
The fourth ad is the best buy.
