Question 650198: A contractor is managing three different job sites. It
costs her $c to employ a carpenter, $p to employ a
plumber, and $e to employ an electrician. The total
cost to employ carpenters, plumbers, and electricians
at each site is
Cost at site 1 = 12c + 2p + 4e
Cost at site 2 = 14c + 5p + 3e
Cost at site 3 = 17c + p + 5e.
Write expressions in terms of c, p, and e for:
(a) The total employment cost for all three sites.
(b) The difference between the employment cost at
site 1 and site 3.
(c) The amount remaining in the contractor’s budget
after accounting for the employment cost at
all three sites, given that originally the budget is
50c + 10p + 20e. Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
