Answer:

The total bill before the tip would be $ 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of total bill,

∵ tip is 18% of the bill,

So, the amount of bill = 18% of x = 0.18x,

According to the question,

0.18x = 4.50

$\implies x =\frac{4.5}{0.18}=25$

Hence, the total bill before the tip would be $ 25.

$3^{x + 2}$ - $3^{x}$ = $3^{x}$ * $3^{2}$ - $3^{x}$ = 9( $3^{x}$ ) - 1( $3^{x}$ ) = 8( $3^{x}$ )

$3^{x + 2}$ - $3^{x}$ = $\frac{8}{9}$

⇒ 8( $3^{x}$ ) = $\frac{8}{9}$

⇒ $3^{x}$ = $\frac{1}{9}$ multiplied both sides by 8

⇒ $3^{x}$ = $\frac{1}{3^{2} }$

⇒ $3^{x}$ = 3⁻²

⇒ x = -2

Answer: x = -2

Identify a and b in the binomial expression (2x3 + 3y2)7.

Shkiper50 [21]

$\text{Hey there!}$

$\text{Distribute the value of 7 in each of your terms}$

$\text{(2x}^3+\text{3y}^2)(7)$

$\text{2x}^3\times7=\text{14x}^3$

$\text{3y}^2\times7=\text{21y}^2$

$\text{We cannot combine like terms because they AREN'T any in this equation}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\bf{Answer:14x^3+21y^2}}}\checkmark$

$\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}$

In a word processing document or on a separate piece of paper, use the guide to construct a two-column proof proving AC > EF

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Complete proof is written below.

Facts and explanation about the segments shown in question :

As BC = EF is a given statement in the question
AB + BC = AC because the definition of betweenness gives us a clear idea that if a point B is between points A and C, then the length of AB and the length of BC is equal to the length of AC. Also according to Segment addition postulate, AB + BC = AC. For example, if AB = 5 and BC= 7 then AC = AB + BC → AC = 12
AC > BC because the Parts Theorem (Segments) mentions that if B is a point on AC between A and C, then AC > BC and AC>AB. So, if we observe the question figure, we can realize that point B lies on the segment AC between points A and C.
AC > EF because BC is equal to EF and if AC>BC, then it must be true that the length of AC must greater than the length segment EF.

Below is the complete proof of the observation given in the question:

STATEMENT REASON 

___________________________________________________

1. BC = EF 1. Given

2. AB + BC = AC 2. Betweenness

3. AC > BC 3. Def. of segment inequality

4. AC > EF 4. Def. of congruent segments
