Answer:

30% tip

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find out how much money Brayden left for the tip. To find this, we'll subtract the initial bill from the remaining bill. It will look like this:

$28.60 - $22 = $6.60

We now know that Brayden left a tip of $6.60. Next, we need to set up a proportion to find out what percentage that is. For the first fraction, we need to plug in the tip and the initial bill. We'll use <em>t </em>to represent the tip, and<em> w </em>to represent the whole<em>. </em>It will look like this:

\frac{6.60t}{22w}

Next, we need to set up the second fraction of the proportion. We know that every percent is out of 100, so we know that 100 will be our bottom number. We are solving for the percentage out of 100, so we will use <em>x </em>in its place. The final proportion will look like this:

\frac{6.60t}{22w} = \frac{x}{100w}

Finally, we'll cross multiply and divide to get the final answer. First, multiply 6.60 by 100 to get 660. Finally, divide 660 by 22 to get a final answer of 30%. Brayden left a 30% tip on the bill. The final calculations are as follows:

6.60 X 100 = 660

660 / 22 = 30%

a distributor wants to make 1000 pounds of trail mix that is 8% raisins. He will use a mix that is 5% raisins and a mix that is
leva [86]

Answer:

200 pounds 20% raisins

800 pounds 5% raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of 5% be x

and number of 20% be y

x + y = 1000

Also;

5% of x + 20-% of y = 8% of 1000 pounds

= 0.05x + 0.2y = 80

From i , x = 1000-y

0.05(1000-y) + 0.2y = 80

50-0.05y + 0.2y = 80

0.15y = 30

y = 200

x = 1000 - y

= 1000-200 = 800

Write four different expressions for the perimeter of a pentagon whose sides are all s-2 units long?
Masteriza [31]

Hey there!

1. 5(s-2) This is because s-2 is the length of each side, and there are 5 sides in a pentagon all of that length, so multiplying it by 5 like this shows its perimeter.

2. 5s-10 This can be found by distributing the first equation, multiplying both s and -2 by 5.

3. (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) + (s-2) Each grouping in the parenthesis represents each of the 5 sides, so adding them all together will get you the perimeter.

4. 5(s) + 5(-2) This one is most like the first one, except it's a little more spread out. Multiply the term s by the 5 sides in one grouping, and the integer -2 by 5 in the other.

Hope this helps!
