If the bill for dinner at a restaurant is $65.00, what is the total bill with a 15% tip?

1 answer:

4 0

First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.

Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $65.00 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $65.00, or 0.15 x $65.00=$9.75.

So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $9.75.

This makes the total cost of your meal: $65.00 + $9.75 = $74.75.

What is the length of leg s of the triangle below?

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

take 45 degree as reference angle

using sin rule

sin 45 = opposite / hypotenuse

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ = s/ $8\sqrt{2}$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } *8\sqrt{2}$ = s

root 2 and root 2 gets cancel

8 = s

A quantity P is an exponential function of time I, such that P = 160 when t = 6 and P = 150 when I = 4. Use the given informatio

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

k = 0.032
P0 = 131.836

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to use the points (t, P) = (4, 150) and (6, 160) to find the parameters P0 and k in the equation ...

$P(t)=P_0\cdot e^{kt}$

We know from the given points that we can write the equation as ...

$P(t)=150\left(\dfrac{160}{150}\right)^{(t-4)/(6-4)}=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{t}{2}-2}\\\\=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\times\left(\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}\right)^t$

Comparing this to the desired form, we see that ...

$P_0=150\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{-2}\approx 131.836\\\\e^{k}=\left(\dfrac{16}{15}\right)^{1/2}\rightarrow k=\dfrac{1}{2}(\ln{16}-\ln{15})\approx 0.0322693$
