The tile store has three different brown tiles mr Jacobs can use. The tile prices are shown in the table. Which tile can he purchase to stay in his budget and meet the design for 38 tiles? His budget is $1200.00
It's hard to answer without the table, but knowing the budget and the need for 38 tiles, the maximum price per tile Mr Jacobs can afford is: $1,200 / 38 = about $31.5789. So basically whichever tile has a price of $31 or less is the right one.
To determine which brown tile Mr. Jacobs can purchase within his budget, let's first calculate the total cost for 38 tiles for each option:
1. Tile A: $22.50 per tile
Total cost for 38 tiles = $22.50 * 38 = $855.00
2. Tile B: $24.75 per tile
Total cost for 38 tiles = $24.75 * 38 = $940.50
3. Tile C: $28.60 per tile
Total cost for 38 tiles = $28.60 * 38 = $1086.80
Now, let's compare the total costs with Mr. Jacobs' budget:
1. Tile A: Total cost = $855.00
2. Tile B: Total cost = $940.50
3. Tile C: Total cost = $1086.80
Since Mr. Jacobs' budget is $1200.00, the tile that he can purchase while staying within his budget and meeting the design for 38 tiles is Tile A, which costs $855.00 in total.
To determine which tile Mr. Jacobs can purchase while staying within his budget, we need to compare the prices of the three different brown tiles and the quantity needed for 38 tiles.
Unfortunately, you haven't provided the table with the tile prices. Could you please provide the prices for each of the three brown tiles?
The answer is tile B since his budget is 1200 and needs to match 38 white tiles
Hope this helps :D
