Step-by-step explanation:
Tax charge
80 × 6.75/100 = 5.4
Cost + tax charge
80 + 5.4 = 85.4
Tip (15% of cost and tax)
85.4 × 15/100 = 12.81
(Cost + tax charge + tip)
85.40 + 12.81 = 98.21
therefore, $95 is not enough.
2.5x - 3 + 2x = 1.75x - 1.25x + 13
4.5x - 3 = 0.50x + 13
4.0x = 16
x = 4
Answer: 4
2. We'll assume those xs are in the numerator
(3/7)x - 1/4 + (3/7)x = (9/7)x - (3/7)x + 3/4 - 1
(6/7)x - 1/4 = (6/7)x - 1/4
0 = 0
That's always true.
Answer: Any x is a solution.
