The best way for him to check his answer would be to simply plug in the value found for x into the equation.
4(2) - 6 = 2
8 - 6 = 2
2 = 2
Given :
At a restaurant, Brianna and Naomi each order an appetizer for $6.50 and an entree for $9.75.
The sales tax is $0.98 and they leave a tip of $5.85.
To Find :
How much did Brianna and Naomi spend in all.
Solution :
Total expenses, T = Food + tax + tip
T = $( 6.50+9.75) + $0.98 + $5.85
T = $( 16.25 + 0.98 + 5.85 )
T = $23.08
Therefore, total expenses is $23.08 .
Hence, this is the required solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula is:
x=(-b± √b^2-4ac)/2a
a= 1
b= -8
c= 17
x= (-(-8)±√64-4(1)(17))/2
x= (8±√-4)/2
now
x1= (8+√-4)/2
x2=(8-√-4)/2
Answer:
38.25 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of guests = 459
Each guest gets 1 muffin
Muffin comes in packages of 12
Hence,
The number of packages is calculated as:
459/12 = 38.25 packages
Hence, 38.25 packages are needed so there are enough muffins for every guest.
