To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. Let's call [tex] x [/tex] to the number of boxes of chocolate.
2. You have that he spends for month:
[tex] 1500dollars+6000dollars=7500dollars [/tex]
3. The problem says that Jeremy prices his chocolates at [tex] 3dollars [/tex] the piece and offers a discount of [tex] 10 [/tex]% on boxes of chocolate. Therefore, the price of a box is:
[tex] 36dollars-(36dollars)(0.1)=32.4dollars [/tex]
4. Therefore, you can write the following equation and solve for [tex] x [/tex]:
[tex] 32.4x=7500\\ x=232 [/tex]
The answer is: [tex] 232 [/tex] boxes of chocolate.
