Answer: He is not correct.
Steps:
Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.

In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),
then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.
well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.
now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.
but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.
now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

Answer:
x = 3 ±sqrt(6)
Step-by-step explanation:
6(x-3)^2-26 = 10
Add 26 to each side
6(x-3)^2-26+26 = 10+26
6(x-3)^2 = 36
Divide by 6
6/6(x-3)^2 = 36/6
(x-3)^2 = 6
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-3)^2) = ±sqrt(6)
x-3 = ±sqrt(6)
Add 3 to each side
x-3+3 =3 ±sqrt(6)
x = 3 ±sqrt(6)
