It would be simplified to 1/21
Answer:
x = ±6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out equation
x² + 7 = 43
Step 2: Subtract 7 on both sides
x² = 36
Step 3: Square root both sides
√x² = √36
x = ±6
X/3 has to be smaller tha 80%
so x can be 2 since 2/3=66% about
1/2 is less thn 2/3
answer is x is 2
Customer #2 has the smallest total bill, including tax and tip.
Choice A, 1.06b + 0.16(1.06b), is correct.
Customer 3's bill is approximately 10% less than customer 1's bill.
Customer 2 leaves the bigger tip.
For customer #1:
(1.06(12.95))(1.15) = 15.79; the tip is 0.15(1.06(12.95)) = 2.06.
For customer #2:
1.06x = 11.65; x = 10.99; 20% tip = 0.2(10.99) = 2.20; total = 11.65+2.20 = 13.85.
For customer #3:
1.06(11.50) + 0.18(11.50) = 14.26; the tip is (0.18)(11.50) = 2.07.
Customer 3 spends 15.79-14.26 = 1.53 less than customer #1, which is 1.53/15.79 = 0.097 ≈ 10% less.
