⇒[tex]120t = 95.94[/tex]    (equation to determine cost of per tile)


cost of one tile t = $0.7995.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Jorge bought a crate of floor tiles for $95.94.

The crate had 6 boxes of floor tiles.

Each box contained 20 floor tiles .

To Find :

Write and solve equation to determine the cost per box'b'.

Write and solve a second equation to determine the cost per tile't'

Solution :

Cost of one box = b

There are 6 boxes

So, cost of 6 boxes = $  6b

Since Jorge bought 1 crate( = 6 boxes) of cost $95.94


⇒[tex]6b=95.94[/tex]     (equation to determine cost of one box)


⇒[tex]b=\frac{95.94}{6}[/tex]


⇒[tex]b=15.99[/tex]


Thus cost of one box = Jorge bought a crate of floor tiles for 9594 The crate had 6 boxes of floor tiles Each box contained 20 floor tiles Write and slove an equation to dertermine th

Respuesta :

15.99

Since 1 box 20 floor tiles

So, 6 boxes (=1 crate) contain tiles = 6*20 = 120 tiles

We are given that cost of 1 crate( = 6 boxes = 120 tiles) is $95.94

Cost of one tile = t

Cost of 120 tiles = $120t


⇒[tex]120t = 95.94[/tex] (equation to determine cost of per tile)


⇒[tex]t=\frac{95.94}{120}[/tex]


⇒[tex]t=0.7995[/tex]


Thus cost of one tile t = $0.7995.
