Answer: Ashley spent $18.70 and the friend spent $17.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost of Ashley's meal = $ 15.85

tip left = 18% of 15.85

that is

tip left = 0.18 x 15.85 = $2.85

All together, Ashley will pay

$15.85 + $2.85

= $18.70

The friend's original cost = $14.30

tip = 20% of 14.30

= 0.20 x 14.30

= $2.86

All together , the friend will pay

$14.30 + $2.86

=$17.16

Therefore:

Ashley spent $18.70 and the friend spent $17.16

Which of the following is the correct graph of the solution to the inequality −8 greater than or equal to −5x + 2 > −38? (1 p
Svetlanka [38]

The inequality should read:

-8 \geq -5x + 2 > -38

Subtract 2 from all the terms:

-10 \geq -5x > -40

Divide all the terms by -5 to get x by itself (note that you flip the inequality signs as you divide by a negative):

\boxed{2 \leq x < 8}

The inequality is 2 ≤ x < 8.

A closed dot represents ≤, and an open dot represents <. Since x can represent all values between 2 and 8, you will shade in between 2 and 8 on the number line. x is greater than or equal to 2, so there will be a closed dot on 2. x is less than 8, so there will be an open dot on 8.

The answer is 'number line with a closed dot on 2 and an open dot on 8 and shading in between'.

Help me on this question! Jake can carry 6 1/4 pounds of wood in from the barn.His father can carry 1 5/7 times as much as jake.
ioda

\text{ Jake father can carry } 10\frac{5}{7} \text{ or } \frac{75}{7} \text{ pounds }

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

From given question,

Number of pounds Jake carry = 6\frac{1}{4} \text{ pounds }

Number of pounds his father carry is 1\frac{5}{7} times as much as jake

To find: Number of pounds Jake father can carry

<em><u>Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions</u></em>

Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator.

Add that to the numerator.

Then write the result on top of the denominator

\rightarrow 6\frac{1}{4} = \frac{4 \times 6+1}{4} = \frac{25}{4}\\\\\rightarrow 1\frac{5}{7} = \frac{7 \times 1+5}{7} = \frac{12}{7}

<em><u>Then according to question,</u></em>

\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{12}{7} \text{ times the pounds jake carry }\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{12}{7} \times \frac{25}{4}\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{75}{7}\\\\\text{In terms of mixed fractions, }\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{75}{7} = 10\frac{5}{7}

\text{ Thus, Jake father can carry } 10\frac{5}{7} \text{ or } \frac{75}{7} \text{ pounds }

5. If the number of employees is represented by x, which function represents the
Ganezh [65]

Consider the missing lines of question are "Due to the Enhanced Community Quarantine, Grand Royal Spa temporarily stopped its operation and to help the employees, the owner decided to split evenly its total revenue of 65,000.00".

Given:

Total revenue = 65000

Number of employees = x

To find:

The function which represents the  amount each received.

Solution:

We know that,

\text{Amount each received}=\dfrac{\text{Total revenue}}{\text{Number of employees}}

Substitute the given values in the above formula.

\text{Amount each received}=\dfrac{65000}{x}

So, the function which represents the  amount each received is

f(x)=\dfrac{65000}{x}

Therefore, the required function is f(x)=\dfrac{65000}{x}.

Note: Given options are not correct and option C is incomplete.

Will the solution of an equation such as x-3=9 be a variable on a number? Explain
KengaRu [80]

X= 12
Add three on both sides to get rid of it
9+3 and -3 + 3 the three is negative because you drop the minus sign down
This cancels out the three and 9+3 is 12 so X=12
