36 inches of rope will be left because 6*8 is 48 and you subtract 48 from 84 to get 36.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

To find the amount of miles/gallon, we have 540 miles/18 gallons=30 miles/gallon. As we add 30 miles for every gallon, the amount of miles traveled is 30*x (e.g. if x is 1 then 0+30=30 and if x is 2 then 30+30 (2 times)=60) with x being the amount of gallons. For b, we just plug 12 in for x to get 20*12=360

Jackie's restaurant bill was $23. 50, and the tax was 8%. Jackie left a 20% tip on the post-tax bill. How much was the tip Jacki

Ksju [112]

well, the subtotal or pre-tax bill is $23.50, now let's add the 8% tax and

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{8\% of 23.50}}{\left( \cfrac{8}{100} \right)23.50}\implies 1.88$

so the post-tax bill is 23.50 + 1.88 = 25.38, and Jackie's tip is 20% of that

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{20\% of 25.38}}{\left( \cfrac{20}{100} \right)25.38}\implies 5.076\qquad \approx 5.08$
