Answer:

$82.58

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the meal = cost of meal + tip amount - discount amount

We then need to find the tip amount and the discount amount using the given cost of the meal, tip percent, and discount percent.

the tip amount applies to the cost of the meal before the discount. Since the cost of the meal before the discount is $78.65 and the tip percent is 20% then the amount of the tip is: 20% of $78.65=  0.20 x $78.65 = $15.73

Since the cost of the meal before the discount is $78.65 and the discount percentage is 15%, then the amount of the discount is: 15% of $78.65 = 0.15 x $78.65 = $11.80

(Remember that the discount amount needs to be rounded to two decimal places since dollar amounts should be rounded to the nearest cent.)

The total cost is then:

                                            $82.58

If a spinner for a game is spun once, there is a 25% chance it will land on
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Pr = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

O \to Orange

So:

P(O) = 25\% --- probability of O

n=2 --- Number of spin

Using the complement rule, the probability that a spin will not land on orange is:

P(O') = 1 - P(O)

P(O') = 1 - 25\%

Express as decimal

P(O') = 1 - 0.25

P(O') = 0.75

On two spins, the probability that it will not land on orange is:

Pr = P(O') * P(O')

So, we have:

Pr = 0.75* 0.75

Pr = 0.5625

<em></em>Pr = 0.6<em> --- approximated</em>

Como podríamos saber cuantos camellos le corresponden a cada hermano en realidad
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Eldest brother = 18 camels

2nd brother = 12 camels

Youngest brother = 4 camels

Step-by-step explanation:

Question posted:

How could we know how many camels actually correspond to each brother?

It is from "the man who calculated":

The question is incomplete without the background information.

Based on the question, It has to do with sharing an inheritance of 35 camels among 3 brothers.

"The man who calculated", by Malba Tahan.

Since the complete question isn't available, we are going to look at the following question to understand how to do the calculation.

Question:

How can an inheritance of 35 camels be divided among three brothers in such a way that the eldest brother gets half of them, the second one gets 1/3 of the total and the youngest brother gets 1/9 of the total camels?

Solution:

Total number of camels= 35

Eldest brother gets half: 1/2 of 35 gives a fraction and not an whole number

2nd brother = 1/3 of 35 (gives a fraction)

3rd brother = 1/9 of 35 (gives a fraction)

Since we can't have a camel in fraction except in whole number, we would look for the closest number to 35 that would be divided by 2, 3 and 9 respectively without giving a fraction.

Number 36 is the closest number to 35 that satisfies this condition.

1st brother = 1/2 × 36 = 18 camels

2nd brother = 1/3 × 36 = 12 camels

3rd brother = 1/9 × 36 = 4 camels

Now let's add the camels the 3 brother got together = 18 + 12 + 4 = 34 camels

Total camels - amount shared = 35 -34 = 1

Meaning one camel is remaining. The distributor would keep the remaining one as that's the way such distributions could be achieved.

Plz help ASAP I will add branliest to the first answer, I need to solve for the letter
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

6. r=2

8.x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

6. 4r-3=5

4r-3=5 add 3 to both sides

4r=8 divide 4 by both sides

r=2

8. 5x-6=9

5x-6=9 add 6 to both sides

5x=15 divide 5 by both sides

x=3
