Answer:

$23.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The lunch normally costs $20

But you give a 18% TIP on top of that

Certainly, it will cost more. Lets find out how much exactly.

First, we need to find 18% of 20 and then ADD it to 20 to find FINAL LUNCH COST.

To convert percentage to decimal, we divide by hundred. After that we multiply with 20 to get 18% of 20. Process shown belowL

18% = 18/100 = 0.18

Then,

0.18 * 20 = $3.6

Adding to $20, we get total cost:

20 + 3.6 = 23.6 dollars

Total Cost = $23.6

A taxi service charges an initial $5 fee , plus $2 per mile driven.

arlik [135]

Part A answer: 2x+5. x is the number of miles driven.

Part B answer: $305. Plug in 150 for x, and the equation is 2*150+5=x, x being your answer that you are looking for. Do the Order of Operations, which is PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right.) So in other words, do 2*150 first, and you get 300. Now your equation is 300+5=x. Add 300+5, and you get 305=x. So your answer is $305.

You would take 5 and multiply it by 3.6 which gives you 18. I believe that is how you would do that problem. Hope it helped.
