Answer:
2.07 or 13.57
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you'd want to calculate the total bill. So you'd do the original bill multiplied by 1.18 (signaling the addition of the tip).
46 · 1.18 = 54.28
If you're calculating only the tip, it would be 46 · 0.18= 8.28
Then, since there is Martha, and 3 of her friends, you'd divide the bill (54.28) by 4 people. However, since the question is a little unclear on whether it is asking how much each person should leave for the tip, or leave overall, there are 2 possible answers.
Overall, each person would leave 54.28/4 = 13.57.
For the tip only, each person would leave 2.07.
this how you divide I hope you understand now how to divide
Hey John
Let's start solving #1
x/4 = 3.5/28
Cross multiply
(x)(28) = (3.5)(4)
28x = 14
Divide both sides by 28
28x/28 = 14/28
x = 1/2
Next, let's solve the second one

Simplifies to:

Cross multiply
(105x + 75)(5) = (28)(50x)
525x + 375 = 1400x
Subtract 1400x to both sides
525x + 375 - 1400x = 1400x - 1400x
-875x + 375 = 0
Then subtract 375 from both sides
-875x + 375 - 375 = 0 - 375
-875x = -375
To find x, divide both sides by -875
-875x/-875 = -375/-875
x = 3/7
Let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Best of luck with your studies!
Answer:
9x-3x(2-4)=6x(3x+4)-6(3x-2)
Firstly, you should find the discount that is taken off of the jacket, and then also find the sales tax.
As the discount is 10%, you simply have to divide 35 by 10. 35/10= 3.50.
Therefore, you need to subtract the 3.50 from the 35, which gives you 31.50. You've then got the 5% sales tax to add on, which is 3.50/2= 1.75, you've then got to add 1.75 to 31.50, which gives you 33.25.
However, if the sales tax is on the discounted price, then it will be 31.50/10= 3.15/2= 1.58, and you've then got to add this is to discount price, which is 31.50+1.58= 33.08
Hope this helps :)
