Coach George went to a store to buy mouthguards. The following packages of mouth guardsare available at this store.10 mouth guards for $14.5015 mouth guards for $22.50Coach George needs to buy 60 mouth guards.How much money will he save by purchasing 60mouth guards in packages with the lowest unitprice compared to the highest unit price?

Respuesta :

We will find that out as follows:

*We determine the cost of buying the 60 mouth guards in both cases and then subtract the smallest value from the greatest:

[tex]x=\frac{60\cdot14.50}{10}\Rightarrow x=87[/tex]

&

[tex]x=\frac{60\cdot22.50}{15}\Rightarrow x=90[/tex]

[These calculations are respectively]

So, we can see that he would save:

[tex]s=90-87\Rightarrow s=3[/tex]

So, he would save $3 in total.
