Question

Ralph’s shirt company sells t-shirts for $7.50 each with a flat rate of $10 for shipping. Frank’s t-shirt company sells t-shirts for $10 each with free shipping.

Answer 1

Answer:

I assume your asking who's is better and why?

Step-by-step explanation:

Ralph has stated that for 1 shirt it will cost

$7.50 + $10 shipping= $17.50

Frank says it's $10 a shirt no shipping

if you work out the cost of Ralph's up to 5 shirts using the equation

($7.50 x number of shirts ) + $10 shipping

with each equation replace number of shirts with the number 1,2,3,4 and 5

1 shirt will cost you $17.50

2 shirts will cost you $25.00

3 shirts will cost you $32.50

4 shirts will cost you $40.00

5 shirts will cost you $47.50

at Frank's shop

1 shirt will cost you $10

2 shirts will cost you $20

3 shirts will cost you $30

4 shirts will cost you $40

5 shirts will cost you $50

Frank's is better to buy no more than 4 shirts from as he's cheaper up to 4 shirts.

Ralph is cheaper for bigger orders with 5 or more shirts in them
