From 10 am to 1 am a milk pasteurization plant was able to process 240 gallons of milk. a worker noticed a loose pipe fitting that was leaking and fixed the problem. from 3 pm to 6 pm the plant was able to process 330 gallons of milk, if the average cost of milk is 3.50 per gallon, how much more money per hour will the plant make between 3 pm and 6 pm than they will from 10 am to 1 pm

The plant will make $105 more per hour between 3 pm and 6 pm than they will from 10 am to 1 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Production:

From 10 am to 1 pm: 240 gallons of milk

Three hours, 240/3 = 80 gallons of milk per hour

From 3 pm to 6 pm: 330 gallons of milk

Three hours, 330/3 = 110 gallons of milk per hour

The average cost of milk is 3.50 per gallon

From 10 am to 1 pm: 80*3.50 = $280 per hour

From 3 pm to 6 pm: 110*3.50 = $385 per hour

$385 - $280 = $105

The plant will make $105 more per hour between 3 pm and 6 pm than they will from 10 am to 1 pm
