Answer:

17.54  I<u><em>f i can get brainliest that would be great</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

to help you next time:

You can find 10% of your bill by moving the decimal one place to the left.  If 26.50 is 100% then 10% is 2.65.  Since 20% is 2 times 10%, 20% of the bill is 2.65 + 2.65 = 5.30.  Now you know the tip you could leave ranging from poor to good, $2.65 to $5.30.  To find 15%, halfway in between, we know 15% is 10% plus 1/2 of 10% (5%).  2.65 plus about 1.30 is 3.95.

Now you have

10% is 2.65 - by moving decimal 1 place left

15% is 3.95 - 10% + 1/2 of 10%

20% is 5.30 - 10% * 2

Answer:

$17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100

20/100 = 0.2

Then multiply it by the cost

87.70(0.2) = 17.54

You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>Elimination Method</u> is the method for solving a pair of linear equations which reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable.

  • If the coefficients of one variable are opposites, you add the equations to eliminate a variable, and then solve.
  • If the coefficients are not opposites, then we multiply one or both equations by a number to create opposite coefficients, and then add the equations to eliminate a variable and solve.

When multoplying the equation by a coefficient, we multiply both sides of the equation (multiplying both sides of the equation by some nonzero number does not change the solution).

So, option B is not allowed (it is not allowed to multiply only one part of equation)

Difference between 1 8/10 and 2 2/5
Eva8 [605]
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:

1 8/10   -->   18/10
2 2/5   -->   12/5

Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:

12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10

Now we can set up the equation as:

18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10   -->   -3/5

The answer is negative 3/5.

I hope this helps.
