The cost of the food bill is $60 and the equation that best describe the situation is (x + 16)/8 = 76/8.

<h3>Which equations and solutions describe the situation?</h3>

Given that;

  • A group of 8 friends went to lunch and spent a total of $76, which included the food bill and a tip of $16.
  • They decided to split the bill and tip evenly among themselves.
  • Let x be the food bill.

If x is the food bill, then;

food bill + tip = $76

x + $16 = $76

Since they decided to split the bill and tip evenly among themselves

(x + 16)/8 = 76/8

We can solve for the food bill 'x'

(x + 16)/8 = 76/8

(x + 16)/8 = 9.5

(x + 16) = 9.5 × 8

x + 16 = 76

x = 76 - 16

x = 60

Therefore, the cost of the food bill is $60 and the equation that best describe the situation is (x + 16)/8 = 76/8.

if a product is it in late you receive 8/9 of you earn points you receive 72 points on your Late project how many points did you
igor_vitrenko [27]
Hello! So if your project is turned in late, you get 8/9 of the points you would've received. In this case, you only received 72 points. To find out how many points you lost, first, let's find the score you could've gotten if it was turned in on time. Let's set up a proportion like this: 72/x = 8/9. Cross multiply the values to get 648 = 8x. Divide by 8 to isolate the "x" and you get x = 81. You could've originally gotten an 81. However, you only got a 72. To find out the amount of points you lost, subtract 72 from 81. 81 - 72 = 9. You lost 9 points from your original grade.
