Answer:

Equation  cost per ream = (cost+ tax)/ number of reams

                                         = ((84+4)/10

                                          =8.80

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to add the tax to the cost of the paper

84+4 = 88

The total cost of the paper is $88

The cost per ream is Cost / number of reams

cost per ream = $88/10

                      = 8.80

Equation  cost per ream = (cost+ tax)/ number of reams

                                         = ((84+4)/10

Answer:

$8 per ream

Cost per ream = (Purchase value - Taxes)/Number of reams

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of reams (n) = 10

Purchase value (P) = $84

Taxes (T) = $4

The cost per ream of paper is given by the total amount paid minus taxes, divided by the number of reams bought:

[tex]C=\frac{P-T}{n} =\frac{84-4}{10} \\C= \$8[/tex]

Each ream of paper cost $8

The equation that represents that situation is:

Cost per ream = (Purchase value - Taxes)/Number of reams
