Question

Plz help por favor :(

Answer 1

a) They would cost the same with 16 tons of sugar.

b) This would cost 9 108 dollar.

Explanation:

! This is only true if the amount of rented trucks remains the same no matter what amount of sugar ! ( Which is really weird but ok.)

a) x= tons of sugar

=>7500+100,50X=6296+175,75X

<=> 75,25x=1204

<=> x=16

b) 7500+100,50.16=9108

Answer 2

4500 + 150.25s = 3696 + 200.5s Solve for s 4500 - 3696 = 200.5s - 150.25s 804 = 50.25s s = 804/50.25 = 16 tons of sugar The cost is found by plugging this value into either side of the original equation; it is $6904.
