Equation used to find total amount that Sam should pay is x = 23.5(1.18)

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Sam wants to leave an 18 % tip for his dinner

The bill is for $ 23.50

To find: Equation used to find total amount that Sam should pay

From given question,

tip amount = 18 % of bill

bill amount = $ 23.50

Let "x" be the total amount that Sam should pay

total amount = bill amount + tip amount

x = 23.50 + 18 % of 23.50

x = 23.50 + 18 \% \text{ of } 23.50\\\\x = 23.50 + \frac{18}{100} \times 23.50\\\\x = 23.50 + 0.18 \times 23.50\\\\x = 23.5 + 0.18 \times 23.5\\\\x = 23.5(1 + 0.18)\\\\x = 23.5(1.18)

Thus the required equation is x = 23.5(1.18)

Which of the lines graphed in the diagram represents the equation 6x + 4y = 8
Blizzard [7]
In order to easily discern which graph is a proper representation of 6x + 4y = 8, you first need to convert the equation to y = mx+ b, also known as slope-intercept form. Here's how you can do this:
6x + 4y = 8
4y = -6x + 8
y = -1.5x + 2
The +2 tells you that your line will intercept the vertical y-axis at (0, 2). This narrows it down to graphs a and d. Then, because you have a NEGATIVE number in front of your x (it's -1.5), you can tell that your graph will be going down as it moves from left to right. This leaves you with graph d as your answer!
