Alright so to do this you need some basic algebra
you have to pay an extra 20% of whatever you buy
thus we can make the following equation
.2x+x=20 (since 20 is the amount of money you have)
combining the like terms,
1.2x=20
and finally, dividing both sides by 1.2
x=$16.67
don't forget to check!
.05*16.67=.83 (sales tax makes the total $17.5)
.15*16.67=2.5 (tip makes the total $20)
whaddya you know, it works!
most expensive item you can buy will cost $16.67
hope this helped!

A. When f(x) becomes g(x) = f(x) + 2, the graph of f(x) is shifted upward 2 units.
B The graph of f(x) is reflected in the x-axis and then vertically compressed by a factor of 1/2.
Answer:
x=45
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-56=34
Add 56 to both sides
2x-56+56=34+56
Simplify;
2x=90
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2=90/2
Simplify;
x=45
