Answer 1

Answer: The cost of the salad is $52.5per visitation but $210 after four visitations.

Step-by-step explanation: The total cost at the restaurant is $54, the tip is $1.50 we have to minus the tip from the total amount to get the cost of the salad.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost of each salad = $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Olivia ate at the same restaurant four times.  she ordered a salad and  left a $1.50 tip on each visit. She spent a total amount of $54.

Let x be the cost of salad

She ate the salad four times. So the cost of 4 salad is 4x

Then she left a tip of 1.50 each visit. 4 times 1.50 = 6 dollars

Total cost is $54

cost of 4 salads + tip amount is equal to total cost

$4x+6= 54$

Solve for x

Subtract 6 from both sides

$4x= 48$

Divide both sides by 4

x=12

Cost of each salad = $12
