Box 1) (LxW) 20x6=120
box 2) (LxW) 15x4=60
box 1 cost) (size of box x price of box) 120x1.25=150
box 2 cost) (size of box x price of box) 60x1.25=75
subtract 150 and 75 to get 75
answer: the company is saving $75 by choosing to make 50 of box 2 instead of 50 of box 1
hope this makes sense comment if you need more explanation
5/12 - 4/5 = -23/60. You can't simplify -23/60. Hope this is right
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x-9
divide the equation by -1 so that the -1's are taken from -3x and -9. so the -1 goes on the outside of 3x+9
-1(3x+9)
then divide the equation by 3 since 3x and 9 is divisible by 3.
(-1)(3)(3/3x+9/3)
-3(x+3)
Now we can expand again to check the problem
-3 times x=-3x
-3 times 3=-9
and add
-3x-9
Hope that helps :)
45 divided by 50= 90%
0.9*16.50=14.85
