Company A :  y=0.75x

Company B :  y=10+0.50x

x = number of bars purchased

y = cost in dollars

They ask us to calculate the number of bars that must be purchased so that the cost is the same in both companies, that is, that both y(company A) y(company B)

0.75x = 10 + 0.50x

We organize similar terms

0.75x - 0.50x = 10

0.25x = 10

x = 10/0.25

x = 40

40 bars must be purchased so that the cost is the same in both companies.

<h3>VERIFICATION</h3>

Company A: y=0.75x ---> 0.75(40) = $30

Company B: y=10+0.50x ---> 10 + 0.50(40)= $30

Correct!

The answer to your math question is: Both company A and B must buy 40 bars so that the cost of their purchase is the same in both.

Is 92 1/2 pounds equivalent to 1,480 ounces
kow [346]
Hi there!

Since

16 ounces = 1 pound,

We should divide 1480 by 16 and see if it equals 92.5.

1480 ÷ 16 = 92.5
92.5 = 92.5

Answer:
Yes.

Hope this helps!
