Answer: B, $78

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tip is 20% of the dinner cost, then we have to first find what is 20% of 65.

20% x 65 = 13. So the tip for the dinner is 13 dollars.

Now we have to add it to the original dinner cost.

65 + 13 = 78.

Therefore, the total cost of their meal is 78 dollars. So the answer is B, $78!

If y is directly proportional to x square and y equal 1/8 when x = 1/2 what is the positive value of x when y it was 9/2?

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y is directly proportional to x² then the equation relating them is

y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition y = $\frac{1}{8}$ when x = $\frac{1}{2}$ , then

$\frac{1}{8}$ = k( $\frac{1}{2}$ )² = $\frac{1}{4}$ k ( multiply both sides by 8 )

1 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )

k = $\frac{1}{2}$

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x² ← equation of proportion

When y = $\frac{9}{2}$ , then

$\frac{9}{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ x² ( multiply both sides by 2 )

9 = x² ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{9}$ = ± 3

with positive value x = 3 → d

A bank loaned out $19,000, part of it at the rate of 9 % per year and the rest at 19 % per year. If the interest received in o

VMariaS [17]

Answer: $11100 was loaned at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount that the

bank loaned out at the annual rate of 9%.

Let y represent the amount that the

bank loaned out at the annual rate of 19%.

The bank loaned out $19,000, part of it at the rate of 9% per year and the rest at 19% per year. It means that

x + y = 19000

The interest on $x after 1 year would be

9/100 × x = 0.09x

The interest on $y after 1 year would be

19/100 × y = 0.19y

If the interest received in one year totaled $2500. It means that

0.09x + 0.19y = 2500- - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 19000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.09(19000 - y) + 0.19y = 2500

1710 - 19000y + 0.19y = 2500

- 0.09y + 0.19y = 2500 - 1710

- 0.1y = - 790

y = - 790/- 0.1

y = $7900

x = 19000 - y = 19000 - 7900

x = $11100

X=1, because they both have the same height (y), so they'll cross each other!
