John goes to a restaurant had a bill of $32.57 he uses a 10% off coupon on the cost of the meal the tax is 8% he leaves a tip of 18% on the amounth before the coupon or tax is tax is applied how much does he spend ?

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial bill was $32.57. If he leaves a tip of 18% on the amount before the coupon or tax is tax is applied, then the amount of tip that he left is

18/100 × 32.57 = $5.8626

If he uses a 10% off coupon on the cost of the meal, then the amount taken off the cost of the meal is

10/100 × 32.57 = $3.257

The cost of the meal would be

32.57 - 3.257 = $29.313

If he pays an 8% tax on the cost of the meal, then the amount of tax paid is

8/100 × 29.313 = 2.34504

Therefore, the total amount that he would spend is

29.313 + 2.34504 + 5.8626 = $37.52064

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
