The total cost would be the tax plus the cost of the meal. In order to find the tax you can set up a proportion: 8/100=x/34.5. Then you can cross multiply: (100•x)=(8•34.5). Then we have 100x=276. Divide both sides by 100 and we have x=2.76. This added to the 34.50 is equal to 37.26. Hope this helps!

Sutopa has 3/4 of the money Maneet has. Maneet has $18 less than Kim. Together, they have $286.40. How much money does each of t
anastassius [24]

Solving a system of equations we can see:

  • Sutopa has $73.20
  • Maneet has $97.60
  • Kim has $115.60

<h3>How much money each of them has?</h3>

First, let's define the variables:

  • S =  money that Sutopa has.
  • M = money that Maneet has.
  • K = money that Kim has.

We can write the system of equations:

S = (3/4)*M

M = K - $18

S + M + K = $286.40

First, we can rewrite the second equation to get:

K = M + $18

Now we can replace the first and second equations into the third one:

(3/4)*M + M + (M + $18) = $286.40

Now we can solve this for M:

M*(1 + 1 + 3/4) = $286.40 - $18

M = $268.40*(4/11) = $97.60

Now we can find the other two values:

K = M + $18 =  $97.60 + $18 = $115.60

S =  (3/4)*M =  (3/4)*$97.60 = $73.20
