Josh went to a restaurant for dinner. The cost of the meal was $24 with a discount of $2. If the total bill includes
an 8% sales tax and a 14% tip, what is the discount
percent? What was the total bill including the tax and the
tip?

17.41 Dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you take the discount, which is 2 dollars, so now the cost without any additional costs is 22 dollars. Next, find 8 percent of 22 by multipling 22*0.08 and then you get 1.76. Subtract that from 22 and 20.24. Then take 14 percent of 20.24 by multiplying it by 0.14, which you get 2.8336. Round that down and you get 2.83. Subtract that from that and you get 17.41.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
