Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)
===========================================================
Explanation:
For the first deal we can say
3 batteries = 4.80 dollars
3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 battery = 1.60 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.
----------------------------------
For the second deal we could say
12 batteries = 14.76 dollars
12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12
1 battery = 1.23 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.
This is the cheaper deal.
----------------------------------
So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.
I say left because you have a straight line, i goes through 0,0 and every time it goes over 1 and up by 3.
Answer:
x = 5/(10 - a - b)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
4 + 3 x - a x = 9 - 7 x + b x
Collect in terms of x:
x (3 - a) + 4 = 9 - 7 x + b x
Collect in terms of x:
x (3 - a) + 4 = x (b - 7) + 9
Subtract (b - 7) x + 4 from both sides:
x (10 - a - b) = 5
Divide both sides by 10 - a - b:
Answer: x = 5/(10 - a - b)
Answer:
-64
