Question

Can someone please help me understand this problem thanks

Answer 1

Explanation:

So we know that it cost $600 in material to build the couch,

and then we know it cost $2000 extra to install and setup the couch,

so it cost 2,600 to build and install one couch,

So the first answer is 2,600

Now to build and install 15 of them we do 2,600 x 15 = $39,000

So it cost 2,600 to make and install one

And 39,000 to make and install 15.

But it only cost $600 to build one

and $9,000 to make 15 without installation fees.
