You order two tacos and a salad. the salad costs 2.50.you pay 8% sales tax and leave a $3 tip. you pay a total of 13.80 how much

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Given:Price of one taco = x; price of 2 tacos = 2xPrice of salad = $2.50Sales tax = 8% of the combined price of two tacos and a salad, namely .08(2x + 2.50)Tip = constant fee = $3.00Total bill = $13.80 Therefore the equation becomes
2x + 2.50 + .08(2x + 2.50) + 3 = 13.80 Solutions: 2x + 2.50 + .16x + .20 + 3 = 13.80 (using the distributive property to multiply 2x and 2.5 by .08).2.16x + 2.70 + 3 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 - 5.70 (subtraction property of equality)2.16x = 8.10x = 8.10/2.16 = 3.75 (division property of equality)
The cost of a single taco is $3.75

To solve this problem, we need to first find the dimensions of the side of the blue and purple squares.

We're given that the purple (smaller) square has a side length of x inches.
We are also given that the blue band has a width of 5 inches.
Since the blue band surrounds the purple square on both sides, the length of the blue square is x+2(5)=x+10 inches.

The net area of the band is therefore the difference of the area of the blue square and the purple square, namely take out the area of the purple square from the blue.

Therefore
Area of band
$=(x+10)^2-x^2$ [recall $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$
$=x^2+20x+100-x^2$
$=20x+100$ or 20(x+5) if you wish.
