Acompany needs 713 slices of pizza for a company party. if each pizza is cut into 8 slices, about how many whole pizzas should the company purchase. a) 60 b) 70 c) 80 d) 90

For this case we must indicate the number of whole pizzas needed for the company. For this we propose an equation.

Let "x" be the variable that represents the number of whole pizzas, then:

We divide between 8 on both sides of the equation:

90 pizzas are needed

Option D

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
