Answer:
total amount paid = 32.5 + 28.9 + 24.95 = 86.35
20% of the total amount paid = 0.2 * 86.35 = 17.27
you tip 17.25$
D. 5root3
x = 15/root3 = 15root3/3 = 5root3
Usually, you create the inequality by casting the problem statement into mathematical terms. Then, solving the inequality can answer the question posed by the problem statement.
Example:
I want to carpet my 1600 ft² house, but I can only afford to spend $3000. Tax and installation costs are expected to add 20% to the total cost of the carpet. What price range of carpet should I be looking at in term of dollars per square yard?
Solution:
Let p represent the price per square yard of carpet. The problem statement tells me
(1600 ft²)×((1 yd)/(3 ft))²×p×(1 + 0.20) ≤ $3000 . . . . . created inequality
p×((1600×1.20)/9 yd²) ≤ $3000 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify left side
p ≤ $14.06/yd²
I can afford carpet that costs less than $14.06 per square yard.
