We can use a rule of three simple, direct proportion to solve this problem.
15 pounds correspond to $1.80, then the question is to find the price of one pound, the called unit rate. We state the rule of three:
15 pound ----> $1.80
1 pound -----> x
x = (1)(1.80)/15
x = 0.12
Therefore, each pound costs $0.12 that is the unit rate in pounds

Answer:
$107.38
Step-by-step explanation:
$91 (the price) multiplied by the percentage 18% (91 x 18 = 1630) (1638/100=16.38 [the tip})
$91 (th original price) + 15.38 (the tip) = $108.38 (final price)
-2 * 2n -2 equals -4n + 4 > 18n -3n
Answer:
$31.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the 6% tax is separate from the $30, we can use this equation:
Total = Cost + Tax (pretty self explanatory)
Method 1
Total = $30 + (6% * $30)
Total = $30 + $1.8
Total = $31.8
Method 2
Total = $30 * 1.06 (The 1 is the original cost, the .06 is the 6% tax)
Total = $31.8
