To find the tip of the bill. You will need to find how much of $86.40 is 20%. In this question, they're asking how much is the tip, not how much will the final price be.

When you multiply a percentage you move the decimal point 2 times to the left: 20. → .20

You would multiply $86.40 by .20

When you solve it 86.40 × .20 = 17.28

$17.28 is 20% of $86.40

$17.28 will be the amount he got for his tip.

My mom keeps saying i need to know how to do this in my head. I'll do it with a calculator just to be safe lol.

So to do this all we have to do is multiply 86.40 x .20 and we get  $17.28

$17.28<--- Answer.

9 − 5 = 1 /4 (16x + 60)<br> show your work solve for x
leva [86]

Distribute 1/4 to all terms within the parenthesis

9 - 5 = 4

1/4(16x + 60) = (16x + 60)/4 = 4x + 15

4 = 4x + 15

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Subtract 15 from both sides

4 = 4x + 15

4 (-15) = 4x + 15 (-15)

4 - 15 = 4x

-11 = 4x

Isolate the x. Divide 4 from both sides

(-11)/4 = (4x)/4

x = -11/4

hope this helps

A student flips a fair coin 6 times. Answer the following questions: 1. Suppose that after flipping the coin all six times the e
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

1. 7 outcomes.

2. 64 outcomes.

3. D and H

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The experimenter will record the total number of heads after flipping the coin 6 times, therefore, the possible outcomes are: the experimenter got 0 heads, the experimenter got 1 head,..., the experimenter got 6 heads. Therefore there are 7 possible outcomes: (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).

2. If the experimenter records the result after each flip (H or T), for the first flip she has 2 results (heads or tails), for the second one she has 2 results, same for the third, fourth, fifth and sixth flip.

Therefore the possible outcomes are: (2)(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)=2^{6}=64.

3. Now the experimenter will end up the experiment earlier if she gets two tails or two heads in a row.

A.TTHTT is not possible because in this case she would've ended up the experiment after the second flip since she got two tails.

B.TTH is not possible either for the same reason.

C. HT is not possible because she still needs to get another T or two H in a row.

D. This is a possible outcome because in this one she flipped the coin 6 times and she didn't get two heads or two tails in a row so she didn't finish it earlier.

E. Is not possible because she should've stopped after the second flip.

F. Is not possible because it has 7 letters, therefore, 7 flips.

G. Is not possible because she should've stopped once she got heads in the fourth and fifth flip.

H. Is possible because she got heads in the second and  third flip.

Solve and verify please solve​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll solve a few of them to illustrate the method:

a) 5x - (3x - 1) = x - 4

The aim is to get all the 'x' terms to one sides of the '=' and the numbers to the other side:

Distribute the negative over the 3x - 1 in the parentheses:

5x - 3x + 1 = x - 4        ( Note that  -* -1 = + 1)

Now subtract  1 from both sides:

5x - 3x + 1 - 1 = x - 4 - 1

5x - 3x = x - 5

Now subtract x from both sides:

5x - 3x - x = x - x - 5.

2x - x = -5

x = -5.

(b) 3/5 x + 1 = 2/5 - 3x

We first get rid of the fractions by multiplying each term by 5:

5 * 3/5 x + 1*5 = 5 * 2/5 - 5*3x

3x + 5 = 2 - 15x

3x + 15x + 5 = 2 - 15x + 15x        (adding 15x to both sides)

18x + 5 = 2          Subtract 5 from both sides:

18x + 5 - 5 = 2 - 5

18x = -3

Now we divide both sides by 18:

x = -3/18 = -1/6.

g) 0.3(6 + m) = 0.4(8 - m)

0.3 * 6 + 0.3* m = 0.4*8 + 0.4 * -m   ( Distributing the 0.3 and 0.4 over the parentheses)

1.8 + 0.3m = 3.2 - 0.4m        ( recall that + * - = -)

1.8 - 1.8 + 0.3m = 3.2 - 1.8 - 0.4m

0.3m = 1.4 - 0.4m

0.3m + 0.4m = 1.4 - 0.4m + 0.4m

0.7m = 1.4

m = 1/4/0.7

m =  2.

I hope this helps.
