Answer:
$33.85
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the initial bill:
(100 + 20.7)% of X was paid
120.7/100 × X = 40.86
X = 40.86 × 100/120.7
X = 33.85252693

The answer is 35/64 or 0.546875 in decimal form
first we write all numerators above the least common denominator 64
1+40-6
————
64
next we solve the numerators by doing 1+40-6 to get 35/64
5 because the highest power= degree of the function
Initial equation:
4a / 2 = 5.2
Multiply both sides by 2:
4a = 10.4
Divide both sides by 4:
a = 2.6
Hope this helps!! :)
