If Builder's Construction Company leases a crane for 11 days, which leasing company has a lower total cost?

Big Lift Equipment

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

High Top Cranes charges $744 for delivery and $3,290 per day. Since Builder's Construction Company leases a crane for 11 days, the cost will be:

= $744 + $3290(11)

= $744 + $36190

= $36934

Big Lift Equipment charges $1,428 for delivery and $3,214 per day. Since Builder's Construction Company leases a crane for 11 days, the cost will be:

= $1428 + $3214(11)

= $1428 + $35354

= $36782

Based on the calculations, Big Lift Equipment has a lower cost
