Let us assume the total amount of meal charge paid by Michael without tax = x
Then
Amount paid to the waiter by Michael = 15x/100
Sales tax paid by Michael = 5x/100
Now we get the equation as
x + (5x/100) + (15x/100) = 18
(100x + 5x + 15x)/100 = 18
120x/100 = 18
120x = 1800
x = 1800/120
= 180/12
= 15 dollars
So the amount paid by Michael for the meal before tax and tip is $15. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
The answer to the question in the photo is 21
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Air masses are given a two-part name that describes the humidity and temperature characteristics of the region where they form
%/100 = is/of
25.5%/100= x/60
The answer is 15.3
Let x=annual interest rate of 18000 investment.
Then
18000*x - 9000(x-0.006)=648
Solve for x
18000x-9000x+9000*0.006=648
9000x=648-54=594
x=594/9000=0.066
Answer:
the annual interest rate of the 18000 investment is 6.6%
the annual interest rate of the 9000 investment is 6.0%
