15% = 0.15
8 = 0.15x
8/0.15 = x
x = 53.33 or 160/3
Answer:
$12.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the cost of the food without the delivery fee.
The delivery fee can be represented as 0.10x.
Keep in mind that the cost of the food plus the delivery fee equals $13.75.
Therefore, your equation will look like: 13.75 = x + 0.10x
x + 0.1x = 1.10x
So, 13.75 = 1.10x
This means that x = 13.75/1.10
x = 12.5 = $12.50
Answer:
x = 18.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are alternate interior angles and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel
3x-10 = 65-x
Add x to each side
3x-10+x = 65-x+x
4x-10 = 65
Add 10 to each side
4x-10+10 = 65+10
4x = 75
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 75/4
x = 18.75
