If we notice, the decrease in payment after 3 and 5 months, it is a multiple of 150.

So, the equation that models balance b after m months is:

b = 1800 - 150m

Here, - 150 is the slope and it indicates the amount being decreased every month.

Answer:

balance (b) = 1800 - 150m, where "m" is the number of months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zachary purchased a computer for 1800 on a payment plan.

After 3 months, his balance = 1350

Reduced amount = 1800 - 1350 = 450

So, 1 month payment = 450 ÷ 3 = 150

After 5 months, his balance = 1050

The reduced amount = 1800 - 1050 = 750

So, 1 month payment = 750 ÷ 5 = 150

Therefore, the rate of change = -150. It is negative because the amount getting reduced.

Therefore, the model is

balance (b) = 1800 - 150m, where "m" is the number of months.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer: The tip left for the servers was  $14.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Total cost of the food (before tax) = $82.25 </em>
  • <em>Tip = 18% of the amount before the tax </em>

So, to calculate the tip we have to multiply the cost of the food before tax ($82.25) by the 0.18 (percentage in decimal form, 18/100= 0.18).

Mathematically speaking:

82.25 x 0.18 = $14.80

The tip left for the servers was $14.80
