Answer:
Option B is correct that is amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given the information that melisande collected 14 bottles on saturday and 9 bottles on sunday
That means she has collected total of 23 bottles
Let us assume that the amount she is paid for recycling is $b
Since, she is left with $3.20 after the amount she gets for bottles we will get the equation below:
23b=3.20
Now, since she has to pay one time service fee equation will become
23b -0.25 =3.20
After simplification we will get
23b=3.20+0.25=3.45
b=3.45/23=.15
b=$0.15
Therefore, The amount she is getting per bottle is $0.15
Somebody else had asked this question and they said it was 35 so your best bet is to go with 35
The city contributed $13,500; the county contributed $27,000; and the state contributed $54,000.
Let x be the amount the city contributes. Since the county contributes twice as much as the city, the county's amount is 2x. Since the state contributes twice as much as the county, the state's amount is 2(2x) = 4x.
They total 94,500:
x+2x+4x = 94500
7x = 94500
Divide both sides by 7:
x = 13500
2x = 27000
4x = 54000
