Answer:

The tip would be worth $2.19

Step-by-step explanation:

x - is the full bill

1/20 x = $0.73

Solve for x:

Multiply both sides by 20.

<u>20</u>*(1/20 x) = <u>20</u>*(0.73)

x = 14.6

Now we just have to find 15% of x to find the tip.

3/20 (14.6) = 2.19

So, the tip would be worth $2.19

Flura [38]

Answer:

325 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

$20 for each day

5 days

$0.30 for each mile

20(5) + 0.3x = 197.5

100 + 0.3x = 197.5

100 - 100 + 0.3x = 197.5 - 100

0.3x = 97.5

\frac{0.3x}{0.3} = \frac{97.5}{0.3}

x = 325
