I got 13.585 but idk if its right
That long, messy expression is not an equation and it's not a question,
so there's nothing to solve or answer. However, it IS long and messy, so
your homework assignment might be to 'simplify' it. Here's how:
<span>12ax - 2ax + 14x - 2a + -3x
Everything we'll do to this is called "combine like terms". That means
"combine terms that are alike". Terms are alike when they have the
same letter variables.
12ax and -2ax are like terms. Combine them, and you get 10ax .
14x and -3x are like terms. Combine them, and you get 11x .
So now we have: 10ax + 11x + 2a .
Nothing has been changed. This shorter, simpler expression has
exactly the same value as the original long messy one has. It has
just been cleaned up, and it looks neater and simpler.
You might also be expected to 'factor' the expression. I don't know.
If you want to do that, then you could do it in 2 different ways . . .
either factor the 'x' from the two terms that have 'x' in them, or
else factor the 'a' from the two terms that have 'a' in them.
Without explanation, here's how those would look:
x(10a + 11) + 2a
or
a(10x + 2) + 11x .
Again, nothing has changed. Both of these have the same value, and
their value is the same as the value of the long messy expression in
the question.

Answer:
T1(n) = 25n +119.50 where n belongs to .
T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to .
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given two situations first is for normal days and the other is for days when 50 or more people are going to this restaurant for the party.
Let the number of person going for this restaurant be "n"
For normal day, we are given
catering service = $25 per person
service charge = $119.50
Let the total cost of the restaurant be T
Cost for this case will be T1
T1(n) = 25n +119.50 where n belongs to
similarly for the case when 50 or more than that goes to this restaurant for party.
cost after discount
Catering service = $20.00 per person
service charge = $59.00
now the cost of this case will be T2
T2(n) = 20n + 59 where n belongs to .
Therefore the two piecewise linear functions represents the total cost of the restaurant for serving n people.
The straight line equals 180
The two angels have to equal 180
180-63=117
117-25=92
92 divided by 4 is 23
x=23
I hope this helped!
