The Flynn family eats at a restaurant that is having a 5% discount promotion. Their meal costs $62.62, and they leave an 18% tip

. If the tip applies to the cost of the meal before the discount, what is the total cost of the meal?

5% of $62.62= 3.13$
18% of $62.62= 11.28$
so add 11.28 to 62.62- 3.13 and they would pay a total of $48.29

Answer:

New price is $12.75

New attendance is 57500

Step-by-step explanation:

For starters, we use the relation.

18 - 3x

Since we don't know the number of times we're expected to deduct $3 from the price.

Again, we have 40000 + 10000x on another hand. Question says to add 10000 people everytime $3 is deducted.

Since (40000 + 10000x) is the number of people, we multiply it by $4.50, the average amount each person spends is then gotten to be

(18 - 3x) (40000 + 10000x) + (40000 + 10000x) (4.5) = 0

Expanding the bracket, we have

[720000 + 60000x - 30000x²] + [180000 + 45000x] = 0, solving further, we have

900000 + 105000x - 30000x² = 0 or

-30000x² + 105000x + 900000 = 0

Then, we find the maximum of a quadratic, by finding the axis of symmetry. Use x = -b/2a

x = -105000 / 2 * -30000

x = -105000 / -60000

x = 1.75

From our earlier equations, the new price then is

18 - 3(1.75) = 18 - 5.25 = $12.75

The new attendance also is

40000 + 10000(1.75) =

40000 + 17500 = 57500

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (1,5) and (0,3)?

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

y=2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

first use the y2-y1/x2-x1 then use y=mx+b after

plug in 3 for y2 and 5 for y1

then plug in 0 for x2 and 1 for x1

$\frac{3-5}{0-1}$ = $\frac{-2}{-1} =2$ and 2 is ur slope

___________________

now use y=mx+b

i usually use the first point but u can u anyone u want

plug in 1 for x

plug in 5 for y

and plug in 2 for m

5=2(1)+b

5=2+b

subtract 2 on both sides

5-2=3

3=b and b is ur y-intercept

y=2x+3

hope this helps
