Answer 1

you will save $.03 on each brochure

Answer 2

Step $1$

Find the unit rates in Alpha printing

$Unit\ Rate=\frac{20}{400} \frac{\ }{brochures} =0.05\frac{\ }{brochures}$

Step $2$

Find the unit rates in Omega printing

$Unit\ Rate=\frac{20}{1,000} \frac{\ }{brochures} =0.02\frac{\ }{brochures}$

Step $3$

Find the difference of the unit rates

$0.05\frac{\ }{brochures}-0.02\frac{\ }{brochures}=0.03\frac{\ }{brochures}$
