Start off by finding 18% of 13.90.

18%=18/100=0.18

0.18(13.9)=2.5

An 18% tip would be $2.50.

Now, to find out if Lana has enough money, add $2.50 to $13.90 to find out the total amount she would leave. You get $16.40. Since $16.40>$15, the answer is no because the total cost including the 18% tip is greater than $15.

How do you simplify <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%20%2B%5Csqrt%7B6%7D%20%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B8%7D%20%2B%

The trick is to exploit the difference of squares formula,

$a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

Set a = √8 and b = √6, so that a + b is the expression in the denominator. Multiply by its conjugate a - b:

$(\sqrt8+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=(\sqrt8)^2-(\sqrt6)^2=8-6=2$

Whatever you do to the denominator, you have to do to the numerator too. So

$\dfrac{\sqrt2+\sqrt6}{\sqrt8+\sqrt6}=\dfrac{(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)}{(\sqrt8+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)}=\dfrac{(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)}2$

Expand the numerator:

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=\sqrt{2\cdot8}+\sqrt{6\cdot8}-\sqrt{2\cdot6}-(\sqrt6)^2$

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=\sqrt{16}+\sqrt{48}-\sqrt{12}-6$

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=4+\sqrt{48}-\sqrt{12}-6$

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=-2+\sqrt{12}(\sqrt4-1)$

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6)=-2+\sqrt{12}(2-1)$

$(\sqrt2+\sqrt6)(\sqrt8-\sqrt6}=-2-\sqrt{12}$

So we have

$\dfrac{\sqrt2+\sqrt6}{\sqrt8+\sqrt6}=-\dfrac{2+\sqrt{12}}2$

But √12 = √(3•4) = 2√3, so

$\dfrac{\sqrt2+\sqrt6}{\sqrt8+\sqrt6}=-\dfrac{2+2\sqrt3}2=\boxed{-1-\sqrt3}$

Write an equation that is perpendicular to y = 2x + 5 and passes through (3 , -2)

Maslowich

To find the perpendicular line, we need to find the negative inverse slope.

y = -1/2x - 2

This line also passes through the point since both have the y intercept / value of -2.

Hope this helps!
