Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do this systematically:

Four numbers: a, b, c, d

Whose mean is 85: \frac{a + b + c + d}{4} = 85

Whose largest number is 97: \frac{a + b + c + 97}{4} = 85

Lets solve for the other numbers:

a+b+c+97 = 85*4 = 340

340 - 97 = 243

a+b+c = 243

at this point it doesn't matter what the numbers are, they just need to add up to 243.

We can do 243÷3=81, which is our answer

You have a coupon for $5 off your total bill at Mama's Meals on Main a. How much will you pay after using the coupon if your bil
HACTEHA [7]

Answer :

(a) Amount paid after using the coupon = $b - $5 = $(b-5)

(b) Amount paid = $23.45 - $5 = $(23.45-5) = $18.45

Amount paid = $54.83- $5 = $(54.83-5) = $49.83

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that:

Amount of coupon = $5

If amount of total bill = $b

Now we have to calculate the amount paid after using the coupon.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid after using the coupon = $b - $5 = $(b-5)

Now we have to calculate the amount paid if bill was $23.45.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid = $23.45 - $5 = $(23.45-5) = $18.45

Now we have to calculate the amount paid if bill was $54.83.

Amount paid after using the coupon = Total amount of bill - Amount of coupon

Amount paid = $54.83- $5 = $(54.83-5) = $49.83

12(5 x-4.5)=36 what is the value of x
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

x=

3 /2

Step-by-step explanation:

12(5x−4.5)=36

(12)(5x)+(12)(−4.5)=36(Distribute)

60x+−54=36

60x−54=36

Step 2: Add 54 to both sides.

60x−54+54=36+54

60x=90

Step 3: Divide both sides by 60.

60x

60

=

90 /60

x=

3 /2
