Answer:
1) The equation 1/8(x+16)=76/8 represents the situation, where x is the food bill.
2) The solution x=60 represents the total food bill.
These both answers are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 8 group of friends, and the total amount spent by them is $76 including the tip i.e $16.
If x is the food bill our equation can be:
(x+16)/8 = 76/8
Solving the equation
(x+16)/8 = 9.5
x+16= 9.5*8
x= 76 -16
x= 60
The food bill is x=60.
The others don’t make any sense so it has to be “A”.
Answer:second one I just did that
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Sweater costs 56.00
To calculate the discounted price of the sweater
56 * (30/100) = 16.8
We used (30/100) to find out the 30 percent of the sweater which will be on discount/reduced.
56-16.8=39.2 is the discounted price
Then we subtract the amount of discount from the original price of sweater to find out the discounted price.
