Acompany paid $48 for 2 cases of printer paper. each case contained 12 packages of paper. next month the company's 0ffice manager needs to order 180 packages of the same paper. if the price of the paper does not change, what would be the total cost of next months order? me !

The answer is $360. This is because 48 divided by the 2 packages is 24, then the 24 divided by the 12 packages is $2 per package. Therefore, 2 times the 180 packages needed to be ordered is $360.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
