1 yd = 36 in; 20 ft 8 in = 248 in;
We will use a proportion:
36 : 24 = x : 248
24 x = 36 * 248
24 x = 8,928
x = 8,928 : 24 = 372
Answer: C ) 372 in
Wouldn't it be -1 (minus one)? 12 - 1 = 11 and 9 - 1 = 8.
Answer:
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the number of containers
y is the total cost
For company A, y = 24x + 42
For company B, y = 28x + 25
For the cost of both companies to be the same, then
24x + 42 = 28x + 25
28x - 24x = 42 - 25
4x = 17
x = 4.25
Mr Lycan would have to order about 4 containers so the cost would be the same from each company
Just plug in 500 for p, 0.2 for r (because 20% is equivalent to 0.20), and 2 for t:

So, if you start with $500 and charge an interest rate of 20% for 2 years, you will gain $200 to get $700 in total.
