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 =
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.
