So, to figure out this problem you first need to solve for how much you have left after paying the base fee. Take the total ($84) and subtract by the base fee ($27). You will get 57 as your answer. Then, take $57 and divide it by $0.15 to get your answer. It is 380 minutes each month. The equation here is 84=27+0.15x.
There would be 3 2/12 left.
2/3 x 1/4 = 2/12
Hope this helps!
Sorryyyy :C
The answer is 40.You should change the 2 2/3 to improper fraction and the times it with 15.
Answer:
She shouldn't tip at all since that's a ridiculous concept
Step-by-step explanation:
common sense
SORRY MADE A MISTAKE WITH THE CALCULATOR I KNEW I MESSED SOMETHING UP
The cost of the meal was $22 so that's the price plus tax and tax is 10% of the price so
cost = price + 0.1*price
cost = 1.1 * price
price = cost / 1.1
price = 22 / 1.1 = <u>20</u>
now we need 20% of that so that's
20 * 0.2 = <u>4</u>
If she's simple-minded enough to tip that would amount to <u>$4</u>
These two lines are congruent (the same) so we can set them equal to each other and solve.
5x-4=3x+6
The first thing we need to do is subtract 3x from both sides leaving us with 2x-4=6
Now we can add 4 to both sides leaving us with 2x=2
Now we need to divide both sides by 2 to get x alone.
Giving us our final answer of x=1
