Answer: Part a) 375 pounds, Part b) 8 words
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
<u />
Since n represents the number of words there are, we can plug in 20 for n into the equation to get:
C = 15*20 + 75 pounds
C = 300 + 75 pounds
C = 375 pounds
b)
Since C represents the cost of the advert, we can plug in 195 for C into the equation to get:
195 = 15n + 75
Subtract 75 from both sides:
120 = 15n
Divide both sides by 15:
n = 8 words
A+s=2000
5a+3s=8500
a=-s+2000
-5s+10000+3s=8500
-2s=-1500
s=750
a=1250

Answer: 17.25 dollars</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
15% of 15 = 0.15*15 = 2.25
The cost has increased by $2.25 which means the cost per kilogram is now 15+2.25 = 17.25 dollars
------------
As a slight shortcut, we can multiply the old cost (15) by the multiplier 1.15 to get the same result:
1.15*15 = 17.25
This method allows us to chain together many percentage increases, and it also allows us to include percentage decreases as well. Note how 1.15 is basically the result of 100% + 15% = 1.00+0.15 = 1.15
