Answer:
Hence, he need to order 20 crates if he buy 480 pounds of apples.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the number of cases(c) he need to order for a 480 pounds of apples.
i.e. we are asked to find the value of c when the value of p is: 480
We are given a expression that represents the relationship between p and c is given by:
p=24c
now we put p=480
480=24c
⇒ c=480/24
⇒ c=20
Answer:
The number of cases he need to order is 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is
[tex]p=24c[/tex]
where p represent pounds of apples and c represents cases.
If jake wants to buy 480 pounds (p) of apples, then substitute p=480 in the given equation to find the cases.
[tex]480=24c[/tex]
Divide both sides by 24.
[tex]20=c[/tex]
The value of c is 20. Therefore the number of cases he need to order is 20.
