You are moving to a new apartment and need to hire a moving company. You’ve researched local moving companies and found these price options. Company Flat Fee Hourly Rate
Company A $50 $25
Company B $40 $30
Company C $60 $20
Company D $150 $5

After the moving process has begun, you realize that it’s going to take closer to 7 hours to finish moving everything instead of the 4 hours you initially estimated. If you had planned for 7 hours of time for moving, which moving company would have given you the best deal?

step-by-step explanation:

the triangles are similar. therefore the corresponding sides are in proportion:

              cross multiply

            divide both sides by 32

-3.5 degrees per hour

step-by-step explanation:

find the unit rate:

-12   1/4 degrees           12.25 degrees

= - = -3.5 degrees per hour

      3   1/2 hours               3.5 hours

fabric (square meters)                   cloaks

7                                                           21

4/3                                                         4

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that harry needs 2 square meters of fabric for every 6 wizard cloaks he makes.

1. first of all we will find how many cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric by dividing 6 by 2.

we can see that 3 cloaks can be made from 1 square meter of fabric. now we will multiply 3 by 7 to find number of cloaks made from 7 square meters of fabric.

therefore, harry will make 21 cloaks from 7 square meters of fabric.

2. let us find how many square meters of fabric will be needed to make 4 cloaks.

first of all we will find fabric needed for 1 cloak by dividing 2 by 6.

we can see that fabric needed for 1 cloak is   square meter. now we will multiply   by 4 to find fabric needed for 4 cloaks.
