Answer:

The cost per case=15.45

Explanation:

Step 1

The expression for the total cost of paper cases can be expressed as;

T=C×N

where;

T=total cost

C=cost per case

N=number of cases

In our case;

T=132.87

C=c

N=8.6

replacing;

132.87=c×8.6

8.6 c=132.87

c=132.87/8.6

c=15.45

The cost per case=15.45
