a. the equation 1/8(x+16)=76/8 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.

b. the equation 1/8(x+16)=76 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.

c. the solution x=60 represents the total food bill.

d. the solution x=60 represents each friend's share of the food bill and tip.

e. the equation 8(x+16)=76 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.

Answer 1

I solved the Equations:

A)1/8(x+16)=76/8----60  (this is the correct answer!)

B)1/8(x+16=76)------ 592  (NOT the correct answer

c)x=60 Represents total food bill excluding tip
