Answer: 14 tons
$3,860.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the amount of sugar transported.
First company:
The cost is $3157 truck rental plus $50.25 per ton of sugar.
Total cost = 3157 + 50.25x dollars
Second company:
There is no charge for truck rental, but it costs $275.75 per ton of sugar.
The total cost is
275.75x
When the two costs are the same, then
275.75x = 3157 +50.25x
225.5x = 3157
x = 14 tons
The total cost is 275.75*14 = $3,860.50
This parallelogram has an area of 27.17.
To find this you use the formula a = bh
So when you fill in base (b) and height (h) with the values provides you get the formula a = 5.66 x 4.8 then you just multiply those two numbers together. If you don't understand any part of this, please let me know and I will explain in more detail.
D.) -20 degrees Fahrenheit because -12 degrees plus eight equals negative 20 degrees Fahrenheit
