Answer:

Each person will pay $ 7.20

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the total bill

Pizza $18.60

Salad $2.50

<u>Soda $2.25</u>

Total  $ 23.35

Sales Tax would be=  8 1/4% of $ 23.35 =$ 1.926= $ 1.93

Tip = 15% of $ 23.35= $ 3.5025

Total Bill paid= $ 23.35 + $ 1.93+ $3.50= $ 28.7825 or $ 28.78

Now dividing the bill among 4 persons = $ 28.78/4= $ 7.196 or $ 7.20

Paying the bill equally is better  and convenient than paying alone as each person gets an equal share of pizza, salad and the soda.

Suppose that the functions and are defined for all real numbers as follows. r(x)=3x^(2) s(x)=2x write the expressions for (r-s)(
nirvana33 [79]
The expression for (r-s)(x) is found by subtracting s from r.  That difference is 3 x^{2} -2x.  The expression for (r+s)(x) is found by adding them, which is 3 x^{2} +2x.  Now we are told to evaluate (r*s)(x) which means they want us to multiply those and state the "new" expression that results.  (3 x^{2} )(2x)=6x^3.  There you go!

Round #7 7) In 2018, the United States Postal Service (USPS) raised its rates for mailing letters. The new charge was $0.50 to m
Anarel [89]

We know that

• The new charge was $0.50 to mail a letter weighing up to 1 ounce, and $0.21 for each additional ounce.

Based on the given information, the expression is

y=0.50+0.21x

Where <em>x</em> represents additional ounces, and <em>y</em> represents a cost.

<h2>Hence, the function is</h2>f(x)=0.21x+0.50
