Zoe paid $18.60 in sales tax and tips for her dinner. The sales tax rate is 11% and she tipped 20%. (The sales tax does not apply to the tip, and the tip is based on the price of the dinner before sales tax.)

From the given hint, it is clear that both sales tax and tip apply on dinner price only. So we have:-

Sales Tax = 11% of dinner price

Tip = 20% of dinner price

And Sales Tax + Tip = $18.60

So (20+11)% of dinner price = 18.60

31% of dinner price = 18.60

0.31 * dinner price = 18.60

dinner price = 18.60/0.31 = 60

So Zoe's dinner price was $60.

NeTakaya
Given that the steps are not shown, I am going to show you all the rigtht steps in detail and so you will be able to compare and tell which step from you list contains an error:

1) Traslation into algebraic language:

<span>“three less than the quotient of a number squared and nine, increased by eight”

3 - (n^2) / 9

2) Evaluate it when n = 6 (replace the value of n)

3 - (3^2) / 9

3) solve the parenthesis

3 - 9/9

4) divide 9/9

3 - 1

5) Subtract

2
</span>
Now you know all the steps and can tell which of the steps on the list is wrong.

Gary won $70,000 in the lottery after all tax deductions. He invested part of the money at 11% and deposited the remainder in ta
Paraphin [41]
Let x represent the amount of money he invested at 11% and y money he invested at 12%. Now we write system of equations:

x*1.11 + y*1.12 = 70 000 + 7900
x + y = 70 000

We will multiply second equation with 1.11
x*1.11 + y*1.11 = 77700
and subtract if from first:
0.01*y =  200
y = 20000

x = 70000 - 20000 = 50000

Would appreciate an explanation. PLEASE ANSWER THIS
Radda [10]

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2*ab*Cos(C)

c = 16; a = 17; b = 8 (what you call a and b don't really matter. c does). Substitute.

16^2 = 17^2 + 8^2 - 2*17*8*Cos(C) Add the first 2 on the right.

256 = 289 + 64 - 282*cos(C)

256 = 353 - 282*cos(C) Whatever you do, don't do any more combing on the right side. Subtract 353 from both sides.

-97 = -282 * cos(C ) Divide by 282

0.34397 = cos(C)

cos-1(0.34397) = C ; C = 69.88 degrees.


Do you need more help on this question? All of these are done the same way.
