$150 in prize money is going to be split among 6 contestants in a competition at a charity event. The person in first place receives the most money, the person in second place receives the second most, the person in third place receives the third most, and so on. Did the person in second place receive at least $40 of the prize money? (1) The person in first place won $50 (2) No individual prize was within $10 of another prize

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

adding 50 40 30 20 10 and 0 gets you 150 so 2nd place gets 40

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
