Answer:

Tax = $0.75

Tip = $2.25

Total (meal + tax + tip)= $18.00

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for percentages of a number, such as sale tax and tip, multiplying the decimal equivalent of each percentage to the amount will give you the individual costs.  For example, in this case the sales tax is 5%, the decimal equivalent of 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05.  To find the amount of tax on Allam's meal, multiply the rate by the amount:

0.05 x $15 = $0.75

Since he plans to leave a 15% tip, we can also multiply the amount of the meal by the planned tip amount:

15 ÷ 100 = 0.15

0.15 x $15 = $2.25

Total amount paid, including tax and tip:

$15 + $0.75 + $2.25 = $18.00

Answer:

  • $3309 at 6%
  • $9985 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent amounts invested at 6% and 9%, respectively.

  y = 3x +58 . . . . . . . the amount invested at 9%

  0.06x +0.09y = 1097.19 . . . . . . total interest earned

__

Substituting for y, we have ...

  0.06x +0.09(3x +58) = 1097.19

  0.33x + 5.22 = 1097.19 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.33x = 1091.97 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.22

  x = 3309 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.33

  y = 3(3309) +58 = 9985

$3309 is invested at 6%; $9985 is invested at 9%.

If f(x) = 1/9 x - 2, what is f-1 (x)
Snowcat [4.5K]

f(x) =  \frac{1}{9} x - 2 \\

f( - 1) =  \frac{1}{9} ( - 1) - 2 \\

f( - 1) =  -  \frac{1}{9}  - 2 \\

f( - 1) =  -  \frac{1}{9}  -  \frac{18}{9}  \\

f( - 1) =  -  \frac{19}{9}  \\
