Answer:
The number of friends that went out for dinner is 8
And their bill is $238
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the number of friends that went out for dinner to be x
And the bill for the dinner to be y
If each person contributed $32 and paid off the bill,they will have a balance of $18
32x - 18 = y_____equation 1
If each person contributed $35 and paid off the bill and also 15% tip,they will have a balance of $6.30
35x - 6.3 = y + (15% of y)
35x - 6.3 = y + (3y/20)
Open up the bracket
35x - 6.3 =(20y + 3y)/20
700x - 126 = 23y______equation 2
From equation 1,y = 32x - 18
Put the above in equation 2 and we have
700x - 126 = 23(32x -18)
700x - 126 = 736x - 414
collect like terms
36x = 288
x = 288/36
x = 8
Remember that equation 1 says that y = 32x - 18 and we now know that x = 8 .
Substitute and we have
(32 × 8) - 18
y = 238
The number of friends that went out for dinner is 8
And their bill is $238
6/8-3/8
3/8
the answer to 3/4-3/8 is 3/8
Answer:
4p^3 (4p + 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
All we can do with this equation is factor it.
16p^4 + 4p^3
When we look at the coefficients, there is a common factor of 4 with 16 and 4. The p's are also common factors, and we can take out a common factor of x^3. We can combine these common factors and take them out of the equation at the same time.
4p^3 (4p + 1)
