2.86-2.81=0.05
(0.05/3.86)x100=1.75%
Answer:
400 students
Step-by-step explanation:
So 15 percent is 60 students
make an equation
0.15x=60
X stands for the total amount fo students and multiply that 0.15 becuase we know ti equals 60 and finding X will solve both problems
that’ll give you 400 students
if you check
400*0.15=60
So its correct
Let T = cost of a taco
Let S = cost of a salad
(2 tacos + 1 salad) + (8 % of 2 tacos and 1 salad) + 3 = 13.80
2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .08(2T + 2.5) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .16T + .20 + 3 = 13.80
2.16T + 5.7 = 13.80
2.16T = 8.10
T = 8.10/2.16 = $3.75
Check: 2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2(3.75) + 2.50 + .08(2(3.75)+2.5) + 3 = 13.80
7.5 + 2.5 + .08(10) + 3 = 13.8
13.80 = 13.80
Answer checks as correct
