I can help if I see the problem
Pythagoras was the greek geometer.
The total cost is $41.85
Amount Saved = 45 x 7 / 100
Amount Saved = 315 / 100
Amount Saved = $3.15 (answer).
In other words, a 7% discount for a item with original price of $45 is equal to $3.15 (Amount Saved).
Note that to find the amount saved, just multiply it by the percentage and divide by 100.
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
