Hope this helps have a nice day
Given:Price of one taco = x; price of 2 tacos = 2xPrice of salad = $2.50Sales tax = 8% of the combined price of two tacos and a salad, namely .08(2x + 2.50)Tip = constant fee = $3.00Total bill = $13.80 Therefore the equation becomes
2x + 2.50 + .08(2x + 2.50) + 3 = 13.80 Solutions: 2x + 2.50 + .16x + .20 + 3 = 13.80 (using the distributive property to multiply 2x and 2.5 by .08).2.16x + 2.70 + 3 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 - 5.70 (subtraction property of equality)2.16x = 8.10x = 8.10/2.16 = 3.75 (division property of equality)
The cost of a single taco is $3.75

Answer: A. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -7/12 or -0.583.. repeating.
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-5= -6(x+2)
___________ (distributive property)
(to group like terms)
6x-5 = -6x-12
___________ (addition poe) (add 6x on both sides to cancel -6 out)
+6x +6x
___________
12x-5 = -12
__________
+5 +5 (addition poe) (add 5 to both sides to cancel -5 out)
__________
12x = -7
__________
÷12 ÷12 (division poe) (divide both sides by 12 to get x)
x = -7/12
