well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.
now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.
but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.
now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

Answer:
The concentration is simply 36%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the concentration of a new mixture formed from mixing some liters of each of two vinegar variants of different concentrations.
We proceed as follows;
The concentration of the new solution will contain 12% of 13L vinegar A and 70% of 9L vinegar B
13L of vinegar A will contain 13 * 12% = 13 * 0.12 = 1.56
9L of 70% vinegar B will contain 9 * 70% = 9 * 0.7 = 6.3
Now, the new mixture has a total volume of 13 + 9 = 22L
The concentration of the new mixture will thus be;
(1.56 + 6.3)/22
= 0.357 and that’s approximately 0.36 or simply 36%
(x-1)^2=9 <=> x-1=3 <=> x=4
Answer:
according to my observation it should be a option
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information, we are told that Mrs. Elizondo runs around a 400-meter track. If she runs 4 laps, the total meters will be:
= 400 × 4
= 1600 meters
Since she uses a constant speed of 250 meter per minute. The number if minutes taken to complete the 4 laps will be gotten by dividing 1600 by 250. This will be:
= 1600 / 250
= 6.4 minutes
= 6 minutes + (0.4 × 60 seconds).
= 6 minutes 24 seconds
