To find this out, subtract the tip from the total:
$128 - $86= $42
Then divide the 42 by 6:
42 / 6 = 7
So the waiter earns $7 per hour.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The correct way to interpret the difference of a number divided by 6 and 5 equals 8 is
n/6 - 5 = 8. I believe that another tutor has misled you; there should be only one division, applying to n only.
20-10=10 therefore X=10
10+10=20
When put in matrix form, the coefficients of
... 3x -2y = 7
... x + 4y = 2
look like
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&-2\\1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D3%26-2%5C%5C1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20)
The determinant is 3×4 - 1×(-2) = 14.
Start off by combining like terms on the LHS (the terms with x in them).
So we get

Replacing this result with what we had before on the LHS, we get

⇒Solve for x (divide both sides

)
⇒Don't forget about reciprocity rules when dividing. This is the same as multiplying both sides by

⇒

⇒

***This is a proper fraction
