Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! So what we're gonna want to do here is set up a system of equations. Lets say x = regular baskets and y = deluxe baskets. You would set up the system like this:

28x + 24y = 1,188

28x + 13y = 836

So since the number before the x is the same in both equations, we are going to want to cancel that out.

28x + 24y = 1,188

-1(28x + 13y = 836)

----------------

28x + 24y = 1,188

-28x - 13y = -836

Add the two equations together! There will be no x value :)

11y = 352

y = 32... The deluxe basket is going to cost $32

Put the y value into one of the equations to solve for x.

28x + 13(32) = 836

28x + 416 = 836

28x = 420

x = 15... The regular basket will cost $15

Hope this helps!

Which of the following expressions represent 15% tip on a $20 meal? Which represents the total bill? **Select all that apply**.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

15/100 * 20, because the meal is 20 dollars and to find the percent of something you divide it with 100 so you will divide 15 with 100 and you’ll get 0.15. Then you will times it with the amount the meal cost because thats the charge. So 0.15•20 and you’ll get $3. A 15% tip for a $20 meal is $3.
