Two friends, Alejandro and Mia, agreed to split the check at a restaurant. Alejandro ordered $12 worth of food and Mia ordered $

18 worth. At the end of the meal, Alejandro put his $12 contribution on the table, plus a $20% tip on his bill and Mia put her $18 contribution on the table, plus a $15% tip on her bill.
The total tip left by Alejandro and Mia is equal to r% of the total check for their table, where the "total check" amount does not include the tip. What is r?

Cost of Alejandro's food = $12

Tip paid by Alejandro = 20% of his bill = 20% of 12 = 2.4

Cost of Mia's food = $18

Tip paid by Mia = 15% of his bill = 15% of 18 = 2.7

Total Tip Paid = 2.4+2.7 = 5.1

Total Check Amount = 12 + 18 = 30

Total tip paid by Alejandro and Mia is r% of the total check amount.

So, we need to determine what % of 30 is equal to 5.1%

⇒ r% × 30 = 5.1

⇒ r% = 5.1 / 30

⇒ r% = 17%

Hence, r is 17%

A lawyer charges for her services based on the number of hours worked. The expression gives the total cost for h hours is 200h+2
zhannawk [14.2K]
H is the number of hours worked. So the expression 200h+250 is 200 times the number of hours plus 250.

Here's a few computations using different values for h

1 hour --> (200)(1)+250 = 450
2 hours --> (200)(2) + 250 = 650
3 hours --> (200)(3)+250 = 850
10 hours --> (200)(10)+250 = 2250

As you can see the 250 is fixed. It gets added to the cost no matter how many hours the lawyer works. This is most likely a flat fee. Just to meet the lawyer you pay $250.

The 200 gets multiplied by the hours worked. So the 200 is an hourly rate. The more hours the lawyer works, the more he gets paid because this part of the expression depends on the hours worked.

Thus, an interpretation of the expression 200h + 250 is that the lawyer charges a fee of $250 per consultation and an additional $200 per hour on top of that.

mina [271]

Answer:

There is a 20% probablity that the marble will be green :)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • There are a total of 10 marbles in the bag. 4 red+4 blue+ 2green=10
  • There are two green marbles out of the 10 marbles.  2/10
  • 2 divided by 10 is .20 or 20%
  • Therefore, there is a 20% probability that the marble will be green.

John put away 36 of 48 shirts in his closet. Don has 84 shirts. If he put away the same percent, how many shirts did Don put in
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

John's percentage:

36 and 48 have a common factor of 12 so divide both of them by 12.

36/12= 3 and 48/12=4 therefore

so 36/48= 3/4 which is 75% but we don't need to focus on the percent.

Don's no. of shirts:

we know Don has 84 shirts so we say

3/4 of 84= no. of shirts that Don put in his closet

84/4=21 21x3=63

Don put 63 shirts in his closet.

Hope that helped! Anymore questions just ask! :)
