A t-shirt printing company charges a one-time setup fee, plus a charge to print each t-shirt. The math club had 75 t-shirts printed for a cost of $424. The science club had 50 t-shirts printed for a cost of $299. What is the cost of having 170 t-shirts printed? *

$826.70

Step-by-step explanation:

If 75 t-shirts cost $ 424, it implies that the value of each shirt is $ 5.65 (424/75). Now, in the case of the 50 shirts, the total value is $ 299, with which the value of each unit is $ 5.98.

Thus, we can see that in an increase of 50% of the units (from 50 to 75), the discount is of the order of, as it arises from the following calculation:

5.98 = 100

5.65 = X

((5.65 x 100) / 5.98) = X

94.48 = X

Thus, since 100 - 94.48 is 5.52, the discount made for the 25 shirts is 0.22% each unit (5.52 / 25). Thus, in the case of printing 170 t-shirts, taking into account this tariff system, and taking as a base price that of 50 t-shirts at $ 299, a discount of 0.22% would be made on each of the 120 remaining t-shirts. Thus, 120 t-shirts at $ 717.6 (5.98 x 120) would be added to the initial $ 299, on which a 26.4% discount (0.22 x 120) would be applied, with which the final price would be $ 527.7 (717 x 0.736).

Thus, the total price of the shirts would be $ 826.7 (that is, adding the base price of $ 299 plus the price of the 120 extra shirts of $ 527.7).

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
