Looking at the bill in a restaurant Mr. Svoboda had a difficult time reading the price of the meal. But he could see that 5% tax

, or $0.73,was added to it. What would be a 15% tip on the meal, if it were figured before taxes?

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

Find x inscribed angles
mina [271]
The easiest variable you can solve for first is "z". Knowing that opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle are supplementary, subtract 93 from 180 to get z.
Z should equal 87.
The next variable we can solve for is "x". We know that inscribed angles are half the measure of their intercepting arc, so we know 93 is half of (112 + x). The equation would look like this:

93= (112 + x)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
186 = 112 + x
Subtract 112 from both sides
74 = x

Now we can apply the same method we used to find "x" to find y. Set up an equation like this:
80 = (y + x)/2
Substitute the value of x in
80 = (y + 74)/2
Multiply both sides by 2
160 = y + 74
Subtract 74 from both sides
86 = y

Hope this helps!

Lucky hiked 6 miles in 2 hours at this same rate what number of miles would lucky take in 9 hours
Softa [21]
If she hiked 6 miles in 2 hours then she must've hiked 3 miles in a hour. 

3*9 = 27

Lucy would hike 27 miles in 9 hours. Hope this helps!

10x+2y=10 in slope intercept form
faust18 [17]
 <span>Slope-intercept form is Y = MX + B. This is in standard form, AX + BY = C. You have to move the X to the other side of the equation and simplify it. </span>
<span>10x - 2y = 10 </span>
<span>- 10x - 10x Subtract 10x from both sides </span>
<span>- 2y = - 10x + 10 Now everything is in the right place, but it still needs to be simplified. </span>
<span>Divide each term by -2, in order to isolate the variable Y. </span>
<span>- 2y/ - 2 = - 10x/ - 2 + 10/ - 2 </span>
<span>The answer is: y = 5x - 5</span>
