Question

Larson's Deli orders brisket delivered every month. Last month the order was for 38 pounds and cost $304, including delivery charges, which are always the same for any size order. The delivery company charges $38 for delivery. How much will this month's order for 50 pounds cost, including delivery charges?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

38 pounds = $304

Delivery charge = $38

Last month order

38 + 38x = 304

38x = 304 - 38

38x = 266

x = 266/38

x = $7 per pounds

This months

38 + 7(50)

= 38 + 350

= $388
