You take your friend out to dinner for their birthday. The bill was $65.00. You left $75.00 which includes the tip. What was the percentage of the tip? (hint divide the tip amount by the amount of the dinner) (use a % sign in your answer and round to one decimal place)

6.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

All i did was subtract 65 from the 75 which gave me 10 and I divided that by the original cost which was 65. That gave me 6.5%. Another possible answer is 0.1538461538461538. I just tried my best.

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
