Maria is comparing the prices of two window cleaning companies. Company A charges $6 per window and an additional $12 as service charges. Company B charges $5 per window and an additional $15 as service charges. Part A: Write equations to represent Company A's and Company B's total charges for cleaning a certain number of windows. Define the variable used in the equations. (4 points) Part B: Which company would charge less for cleaning 8 windows? Justify your answer. (3 points) Part C: How much money is saved by using the services of Company B instead of Company A to clean 6 windows? (3 points)
what have you got as an attempt so far?
ummmm im not really sure what to do at all
add up the cost of each company ....
38

spose you want to go out to a squaredancing party ... it costs 12 dollars to get in and you have to pay 6 dollars for every hour you spend there ... how can you determine the total cost of going to the party?
by how many hours you have spent in the the party?
plus the 12 dollars you spent to get in
thats what a variable is for ... it varies. we know that its 6 for every hour ... so for x hours that 6x dollars ..plus the 12 to get in costA = 12 + 6x
if we spend 3 hours at the party .. how much does it cost us? if your friend only spent 1.5 hours .. how much did it cost them?
18 dollas
12+18..
30
12+9 for the friend
that inst the question though
i believe im stuck in lag ...
