So to solve this question, your goal is to find out how the way it is solved is not correct.
Your answer would be: On the third line, the student adds the 8 to both sides instead of subtracting. The way the initial equation is given is
y-(-8)=-6(x-2). After distributing the six, the student should make the 8 positive because subtracting a negative makes a positive. After solving, the equation should look like: y(+8)=-6x+12, so you would subtract the 8 from both sides instead of adding it, and solve from there.
Since each table had 7 women and 3 men at each table, that would mean each table has 10 people. Since there are 9 tables he was waiting on, and 10 people at each table, multiply 9 x 10, and you will find that he served 90 people in total.
Answer:
Discount = $30, Final price = $90
Step-by-step explanation:
25% is one quarter. 120/4=30
One quarter of 120 is 30, so - 30 would give discounted price of $90.
Similarly you could think of it like the discounted price is 75% of the original one and do 120x0.75=90 to find 75% of 120.
Hope this helped!
