Answer:

The number of tile for which the cost is same route to nearest tile is 49 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost which Joshua will pay for tile at one store = $ 0.99 per tile + $ 25 for tile saw

The  cost which Joshua will pay for tile at another store = $ 1.50 per tile only

Let The number of tile for which the cost is same route to nearest tile = n

So, According to question

$ 0.99 × number of tile + $ 25 = $ 1.50 × number of tile

or, $ 0.99 × n + $ 25 = $ 1.50 × n

or, $ 1.50 × n - $ 0.99 × n = $ 25

I.e 0.51 × n = $ 25

∴  n = [tex]\frac{25}{0.51}[/tex]

I.e n = 49.01 ≈ 49

So, The number of tile for which the cost is same route to nearest tile = n = 49

Hence The number of tile for which the cost is same route to nearest tile is 49 . Answer
