Do $27.58 x .06 (for the sales tax) which equals in total $1.65.
Then do $27.58 x .18 (for the tip) which equals $4.96 in total.
Later add the tip and tax together which you get $6.61,add that to $27.58 and you'll get $34.19 total adding the tax and tip
I think the answer is 7 but im not positive

All you have to do is divide them
Answer:
10 is the correct answer for this problem.
Step-by-step explanation: (apex)
3/(x + 4) = (x + 2)/5
Multiply both sides by 5 :
5 × 3/(x + 4) = 5 × (x + 2)/5
15/(x + 4) = x + 2
Multiply both sides by x + 4 :
(x + 4) × 15/(x + 4) = (x + 4) × (x + 2)
Provided that x + 4 ≠ 0, we can cancel the factors of x + 4 on the left side:
15 = (x + 4) (x + 2)
Expand the product on the right side:
15 = x² + 6x + 8
Move everything to one side:
0 = x² + 6x - 7
We can factorize easily in this case
0 = (x + 7) (x - 1)
Then
x + 7 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
⇒ x = -7 or x = 1
