dinners frequently add a 15% tip when charging a meal to a credit card. what is the price of the meal without the tip amount charged is $18.40? how much was the tip?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

'x' the price of the meal

15% of x or 0.15x is the tip

x + 0.15x = 20.70

1.15x = 20.70 divide both sides by 1.15

x = 20.70/1.15

x = $18

0.15*18 = $2.70

The price of the meal without the tip is $18.

The tip was $2.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we will use binomial probability:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

In this case, n = 11, r ≥ 7, p = 0.6, and q = 0.4.

P = ₁₁C₇ (0.6)⁷ (0.4)⁴ + ₁₁C₈ (0.6)⁸ (0.4)³ + ₁₁C₉ (0.6)⁹ (0.4)² + ₁₁C₁₀ (0.6)¹⁰ (0.4)¹ + ₁₁C₁₁ (0.6)¹¹ (0.4)⁰

P = 0.236 + 0.177 + 0.089 + 0.027 + 0.004

P = 0.533

How is the interest rate on a payday loan calculated?
a.
loan amount divided by total fees
b.
total fees divided by loan amount
c.
total fees divided by days of loan
d.
APR divided by 365

Answers

Answer:

b. total fees divided by loan amount

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate on a payday loan is usually calculated by dividing the total fees accrued in the loan repayment calculation by the exact loan amount.

Doing this will result in determining the interest rate used in a loan and it’s usually important to ensure accountability and also making sure the exact rate contained in the Loan application agreement Is the same as what is used later on.

The sum of two numbers is 38 and the difference is 8. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer:

Since the sum is 38, y must be 15. And indeed the difference between 23 and 15 is 8, so it's correct.

Answer:

15 & 23

Step-by-step explanation:

I used an insert and check kind of method. Basically you insert numbers and check if they work for both equations. the equations are as follow:

X + Y = 38

X - Y = 8

I inserted various combinations of numbers and we'll use one as reference.

I used 16 and 22. 16 and 22 correctly fits the requirements of the first equation but when we do 22 - 16 we see that it equals 6. this is 2 off from the second equation. Using this info I ask myself, was the answer close or far from the answer needed.

20 X 40 = 800 (split into 2 fourths) = 40

Step-by-step explanation

20 x 40 = 800;

For 2 necklaces she can split 800 into fourths.

800 - 40 = 80. (1 fourth)

80 - 40 = 40 (2 fourths)

40 - 40 = 0 (3 fourths)

She could split 800 into 2 fourths to get a number more than 0 and less then 42.

The best estimate of rounding 42 is 40. Because 40 is closer to 42.

If f(x) = 16x – 30 and g(x) = 14x – 6, for which value of x does (f – g)(x) = 0? –18 –12 12 18

Answers

Answer:

Option 3: 12 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions are:

[tex]f(x) = 16x-30\\g(x) = 14x-6[/tex]

In order to find the value of x on which (f-g)(x) will be zero, first of all we have to find (f-g)(x) and then equate it equal to zero to find the value of  that will make (f-g)(x)

So,

[tex](f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)\\= (16x-30)-(14x-6)\\=16x-30-14x+6\\= 2x-24[/tex]

Now to find the value of x on which (f-g)(x) will be zero, putting (f-g)(x) = 0

[tex](f-g)(x) = 0\\2x-24 = 0[/tex]

Adding 24 on both sides

[tex]2x-24+24 = 0+24\\2x = 24[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{24}{2}\\x = 12[/tex]

For x=12, (f-g)(x) will be zero.

Hence,

Option 3: 12 is the correct answer.

$1017.19

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the fraction of how much of Paulo's money is spent on his rent and car. Add 1/4 and 1/8, which is 3/8 because 1/4 = 2/8. Then multiply 3/8 by Paulo's monthly spending, which is $2712.50. Multiplying those numbers will get you $1017.1875. which you have to round up to $1017.19 because you can't spend three quarters of a cent.

Answer:

Asumming that you are rounding to the nearest hundreth:

1,017.19

Step-by-step explanation:

Find [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] of 2,712.5 to find how much money Paulo spends on his car.

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = .125

Multiply 2,712.5 by .125

2,712.5 × .125 = 339.0625 ≈ 339.06

Now, find [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of 2,712.5 to find how much paulo spends on his rent.

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = .25

Multiply 2,712.5 by .25

2,712.5 × .25 = 678.125 ≈ 678.13

Add the two values together to get your answer

339.09 +

678.13

----------

1,017.19

(Another way to dolve this problem would be to find [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of 2,712.5 and subtract it from the origional value, 2,712.5)

The arctic tern flies from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back every year, a total distance of 22,000 miles! In late summer, the terns start their migration south, and it takes about 3 months to go the 11,000 miles. What is the average velocity, in miles per day, that these birds travel?

Answers

Answer:

The birds travel at an average velocity of 122.2 miles per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The arctic terns fly a total distance of 22,000 miles in their yearly migration from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back again.

The average speed is the ratio between the total distance traveled by the time they took to travel.

Assume we take an average month of 30 days, then the time the arctic terns take to travel the 11,000 miles back is 30*3= 90 days.

The average velocity is

[tex]\displaystyle v=\frac{11,000}{90}=122.2[/tex]

v=122.2 miles/day

The birds travel at an average velocity of 122.2 miles per day

Answer:

The artic tern flies 11000 miles about 3 months at an average velocity of 122.222 miles per day.
