The whole bill is $31.99 that is 100%. You can use mental math to determine exatcly 15% from $31.99:

1. 15%=10%+5%

2. To find 10% from $31.99 you should simply divide $31.99 by ten. Thus, 10% from $31.99 is $3.199.

3. 5% is half of 10%, then 5% from $31.99 is $3.199:2=$1.5995.

4. 15% from $31.99 is $3.199+$1.5995=$4.7985≈$4.80.

Answer: correct choice is B.

Letter B bc if you do the actual math it comes to be 4.79 so mentally you would give a 4.80 tip

F(x)= x-2/ x-4
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The discontinuity is x = 4

There no holes

The equation of the vertical asymptote is x = 4

The x intercept is 2

The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the problem

∵ f(x)=\frac{x-2}{x-4}

- To find the point of discontinuity put the denominator = 0 and find

 the value of x

∵ The denominator is x - 4

∵ x - 4 = 0 ⇒ add 4 to both sides

∴ x = 4

* The discontinuity is x = 4

- A hole occurs when a number is both a zero of the numerator

 and denominator

∵ The numerator is x - 2

∵ x - 2 = 0 ⇒ add 2 to both sides

∴ x = 2

∵ The denominator is x - 4

∵ x - 4 = 0 ⇒ add 4 to both sides

∴ x = 4

∵ There is no common number makes the numerator and denominator

   equal to 0

∴ There no holes

- Vertical asymptotes are vertical lines which correspond to the zeroes  

  of the denominator of the function

∵ The zero of the denominator is x = 4

∴ The equation of the vertical asymptote is x = 4

- x- intercept is the values of x which make f(x) = 0, means the

 intersection points between the graph and the x-axis

∵ f(x) = 0

∴ \frac{x-2}{x-4}=0 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ x - 2 = 0 ⇒ add 2 to both sides

∴ x = 2

* The x intercept is 2

- If the highest power of the numerator = the highest power of the

 denominator, then the equation of the horizontal asymptote is

 y = The leading coeff. of numerator/leading coeff. of denominator

∵ The numerator is x - 2

∵ The denominator is x - 4

∵ The leading coefficient of the numerator is 1

∵ The leading coefficient of the denominator is 1

∴ y = 1/1 = 1

* The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y = 1
