The line VS is middle line of that trapezoid, so you know that it is
VS= (WR+UT)/2
so we will get that it is:
<span>40= (x^2+2 +2x^2+3)/2
x = 5
Therefore,
x^2 + 2
5^2 + 2
25 +2

Answer: The price of meal before the tip = $34.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The percentage of tip = 22% = 0.22 ( we divide a percentage by 100 to convert it into decimal)
Total amount paid ( including tip) = $41.48
Formula for Total bill = Price of meal + Tip amount , where Tip amount= 22% of Price of meal.
Let x be the price of meal, then
Total bill =x + 0.22 x (x )
⇒ $41.48= x(1+0.22) [ By distributive property]
⇒ $41.48 = x (1.22)
⇒ x= ($41.48) ÷ 1.22
⇒ x= 34
Hence, the price of your meal before you applied the tip = $34.
1) Vertical angles theorem
- Angles EOF and BOC are vertical angles.
2) Angle addition postulate
- Angles AOB and BOC add to form angle AOC.
3) Linear pair
- Angles that add to form a straight angl are a linear pair
4) Subtraction property of equality
- They subtracted angle AOC from both sides.
(3x^3 - 5x^2 -4x + 4) / (x-2) = (3x-2)(x+1) when x ≠2
