Answer:

$500

Step-by-step explanation:

Wages = $30

Tips = 15% of on customers food bill

if the waiter earns a total of $105, what is the customer's food bill?

15 % of customers food bill = Total earned - wages

= $105 - $30

= $75

15 % of customers food bill = 75

Let x = customer's food bill

15% of x = $75

0.15x = 75

x = 75 / 0.15

= $500

x = $500

Therefore, customer's food bill is $500

Which linear equation best represents the data given in the table?

kirill115 [55]

Linear equations are equations that have constant slopes

The linear equation that represents the table is (a) y = 7x +4

<h3>How to determine the linear equation</h3>

Start by calculating the slope (m) using:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$

So, we have:

$m = \frac{-10 +17}{-2 +3}$

Simplify

$m = \frac{7}{1}$

$m = 7$

The equation is then calculated as:

$y = m(x -x_1) + y_1$

So, we have:

$y = 7(x +2) -10$

Open the brackets

$y = 7x +14 -10$

$y = 7x +4$

Hence, the linear equation that represents the table is (a) y = 7x +4

Find the measure of ZB.

RoseWind [281]

The sum of the inside angles of a triangle, always sum up to 180 degrees. Using this information, we can create the following equation for this problem:

$(3x-2)\text{ +(6}x\text{+11)+(5}x\text{ +3) = 180}$

Adding up all terms with 'x' and adding the other together, we have the following equation:

$\begin{gathered} (3x+6x+5x)+(11+3-2)=180_{} \\ 14x+12=180 \\ 14x=180-12=168 \end{gathered}$

Solving this last equation for 'x', we have the following:

$\begin{gathered} 14x=168 \\ x=\frac{168}{14}=12 \end{gathered}$

Then, the final answer for the 'x' value is twelve!
