Answer:
cost = $10
Step-by-step explanation:
let cost be x
Price = x+ (0.5x)= 1.50x
cost reduced in term of x is 20% of 1.50x
* 1.50x = 0.3x
hence 1.50x - 0.3x = 12
1.2x=12
x= 
= 10
cost = $10
B is the answer , because in functions, we can’t have two X for one Y
Answer: 8/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 times 3 will give you 3/12 and add 5/12
ANSWER: Company C
EXPLANATION:
1) Find the least common multiple of 6, 10 and 12. This would be 60 because:
6 x 10 = 60
10 x 6 = 60
12 x 5 = 60
2) Now you can figure out how much money each company gives for every $60 worth of gift wrap by multiplying the amount they gave in the paragraph by the same as what you did in the calculations above.
<u>Company A</u>
$1 x 10 = $10 for every $60 worth of gift wrap sold
<u>Company B</u>
$2 x 6 = $12 for every $60 worth of gift wrap sold
<u>Company C </u>
$3 x 5 = $15 for every $60 worth of gift wrap sold
ARGUMENT
Company C should be selected because they give the most money per dollar ($15 per $60 worth of gift wrap sold).
