You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let m = no. of mugs
\n" ); document.write( "write a cost equation for each company
\n" ); document.write( "The cup company charges $4 per mug plus an additional fee of $30.
\n" ); document.write( "C = 4m + 30
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " Mug Rus only charges $4.50 per mug.
\n" ); document.write( "C = 4.50m
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write and solve an equation to find how many mugs Manuela can have made for the 2 companies prices to be the same.
\n" ); document.write( "they want the two costs to be same therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "4.50m = 4m + 30
\n" ); document.write( "4.50m - 4m = 30
\n" ); document.write( ".50m = 30
\n" ); document.write( "m = 30/.5
\n" ); document.write( "m = 60 mugs, the cost will be the same
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Confirm this; find the actual cost for each
\n" ); document.write( "C = 4(60) + 30
\n" ); document.write( "C = 240 + 30
\n" ); document.write( "C = $270
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "C = 4.50(60)
\n" ); document.write( "C = $270\r
\n" ); document.write( "
