Given:Price of one taco = x; price of 2 tacos = 2xPrice of salad = $2.50Sales tax = 8% of the combined price of two tacos and a salad, namely .08(2x + 2.50)Tip = constant fee = $3.00Total bill = $13.80 Therefore the equation becomes
2x + 2.50 + .08(2x + 2.50) + 3 = 13.80 Solutions: 2x + 2.50 + .16x + .20 + 3 = 13.80 (using the distributive property to multiply 2x and 2.5 by .08).2.16x + 2.70 + 3 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 - 5.70 (subtraction property of equality)2.16x = 8.10x = 8.10/2.16 = 3.75 (division property of equality)
The cost of a single taco is $3.75

Can somebody help me with this question, please? I have no idea how to do this or find the answer. :/ How many ways are there to
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

28 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a combination question. Combination has to do with selection.

Total number of element in the set = 8

Number divisible by 6 or 8 are {-98, -48, -42, -36, -18, -6}

Total number divisible by 6 or 8 is 6

The number of ways we can choose 6 items from 8 is expressed as;

8C6 = 8!/(8-6)!6!

8C6 = 8!/(2)!6!

8C6 = 8*7*6!/2!6!

8C6 = 8*7/2

8C6 = 56/2

8C6 = 28 ways

Hence there are 28 different ways

*୨୧ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ ୨୧*              

♡ The Explanation/Step-By-Step ♡          

Natural numbers are <u>positive integers</u> from 1 till infinity, though, nautral numbers don't include zero. Since -85 is a negative number, this wouldn't be a natural number.

A whole number is a set of numbers including <u>all positive integers and 0.</u> Since -85 isn't a positive number, this wouldn't be a whole number.

An irrational number is where any real number that cannot be expressed as the quotient of two integers. Irrational numbers are commonly square roots, too. Although, -85 isn't a square root.

A rational number is where any number that can be written as a ratio, or a fraction, of two integers can be classified as a rational number. Rational numbers are commonly fractions, decimals, negative decimals, etc!

An integer is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero. 85 is a whole number, and can be negative, which in this case, is -85. The number we're using. Therefore, -85 is an integer.
