Answer:

65.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

After eating a meal at a restaurant, we decided to tip 25%, building a grand total of $87.50.

To find:

Price before tip

Solution:

87.50 × 25% = 21.875

~Round~: 21.875 to 21.88

87.50 - 21 .88 = 65.62

Thus the price before the tip is 65.62

Check Answer:

<em>Formula: Higher number - Lower number ÷ original number × 100</em>

<em>Solve: </em>

<em>87.50 - 65.62 = 21.88</em>

<em>21.88 ÷ 87.50=0.25005714285</em>

<em>0.25005714285 × 100 = 25.0057142857</em>

<em>Round - 25%</em>

if you horizontally strech the quadratic parent function, f(x)=x^2, by a factor of 4, what is the equation of the new function?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

     g(x) = x^2/16

Step-by-step explanation:

To stretch a function horizontally by a factor of k, replace x with x/k.

You want a stretch factor of 4, so your function is ...

  g(x) = f(x/4) = (x/4)^2

  g(x) = x^2/16

__

The attached graph shows the horizontal stretch.

RoseWind [281]
Amount paid for the first book is $17.

Amount paid for the second book is 0.75 x 8 = $6

Total amount paid = $17 + $6 = $23

Total full cost of the two books = $17 + $8 = $25

Amount of discount = $25 - $23 = $2

% reduction = \frac{2}{25} \times100\%=8\%

Therefore, the <span>percent of the total cost of the two books reduced during the sale</span> is 8%
