Joe worked as a waiter at a charity banquet. He earned $17.50 for each hour worked. Joe also received a tip for this event in th

e amount of $35.80. In order to work the banquet, Joe had to rent a uniform which cost $21.38 for the day. Joe worked 4 hours at the event and 2.5 hours helping set up the night before. Joe used his money earned to repay a loan he owes his dad in the amount of $250. The expression below can be used to find Joe's new loan balance after paying his dad. 250 – 17.5(4 + 2.5) – (35.80 – 21.38) How much does Joe now owe his dad for the loan?

Answer:

Joe still owes his dad $121.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Joe's new loan balance after paying his dad = amount he owes his dad - joes profit

Joe's profit from working as a waiter = Revenue - cost of renting a uniform

Revenue = amount earned for total hours worked + tips

total hours worked = 4 hours + 2.5hours = 6.5 hours

amount earned for total hours worked = 6.5 x $17.50 = $113.75

Revenue = $113.75 + $35.80. = $149.55

Joe's profit = $149.55 - $21.38 = $128.17

Loan balance = $250 - 128.17 = $121.83

Alternatively, the equation provided in the question can be used :

250 – 17.5(4 + 2.5) – (35.80 – 21.38)

250 - 113.75 - 14.42

= $121.83

Nikolay [14]

The answer is 118.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to subtract the meal cost from average unit cost for each meal:

A restaurant profits 1.25$ for each meal. If we divide fixed cost to profit for each meal:

147.5/1.25=118

The restaurant have to sell 118 meals at least each day for the owner to break even

Suppose that each semester at a particular community college Manuel has to pay $1478 in tuition and $121 in fees.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Let x be time, in semesters, remaining before Manuel graduates</em>.  We find that Manuel's expenses are:

$1478/semester in tuition, and

$121/semester in fees

1.  <u>x semesters remaining:  fees</u>

  Remaining cost for fees, y, is the product of the fee times the number of semesters, x:

y =($121/semester)*x

y = ($121)*x

2.  <u>x semesters remaining:  tuition</u>

  Remaining cost, y, is the product of the tuition (times the number of semesters, x.  

y = ($1478/semester)*x + ($121/semester)*x

y = ($1599)*x

3.  <u>x semesters remaining:  tuition and fees</u>

  Remaining cost, y, is the sum of the products of the tuition (times the number of semesters, and the fees (tix.  

y = ($1478/semester)*x + ($121/semester)*x

y = ($1599)*x
