Answer:

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hours A courier worked = 39

Money a courier earned  = $ 429

⇒ Hourly Wage of the courier = \frac{429}{39}

                                                  = $ 11 per hour

Let x be the rate shown on his pay stub.

According tot he Question,

x + 3 = 11

x = 11 - 3

x = 8

Therefor, Option B is correct.

A 90 oz. bottle of shampoo is sold for $18.95. What is the price per ounce
Veseljchak [2.6K]

This sets up as a very commonly  used proportion.

90 oz / 18.95 = 1 oz / x             Cross multiply

90 x = 18.95                              Divide by 90

x = 18.95 / 90

x = 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.

So each ounce of shampoo costs 0.21 dollars or 21 cents.

This is a very handy way to check best deals. Stores have trained us for years to believe that the more we buy of a brand, the better the price. It isn't always true. Sometimes buying the  smaller quantity is the better deal. There is only one way to be sure and that's to do a proportion like this one.

Try this is an example. The same company makes a smaller container of shampoo of 45 oz for 9.15. How much is 1 oz and which is the better deal? You should get 0.20333 dollars so this is marginally (just) the better deal.
