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

I need help SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME OUT WITH THIS !! THANK UU
Mama L [17]

Answer:

since they are alternate exteriors, we put a equal sign

2x+78=5x+15

next we subtract 78 on both sides

2x+78-78=5x+15-78

2x=5x-63

then we subtract 5x on both sides

2x-5x=5x-5x-63

-3x=-63

after that we divide -3 on both sides

-3x/-3=-63/-3

and the answer is

x=21
