Answer: 17.50
Step-by-step explanation:
20% of x = 3.50
(20/100) x = 3.50 Divide top and bottom of the left number by 20
(20÷20) / (100÷20) * x = 3.50
(1/5) x = 3.50 Multiply both sides by 5
x = 3.50 * 5
x = 17.50
The meal cost 17.50
Answer:
A) "The tax on the meal was 7%" is not needed to compute the bill after tax and tip.
B) The total bill was $17.50
Step-by-step explanation: 3.50/.20=17.5

Answer: 16 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations are:
840 + 17x
and
760 + 22x
with x being the amount of hours
840 + 17x = 760 + 22x
-760
80 + 17x = 22x
-17x
80 = 5x
/5
16 = x
840 + 17(16) = 1,112
760 + 22(16) = 1,112
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As both 
,
lies in the third quadrant.
In the third quadrant,
For parallel lines, slopes are equal.
5x - 3y = -10
3y = 5x + 10
y = 5/3 x + 10/3
Required slope = 5/3
the answer is -3/2 and -11/2
