Martin got a haircut yesterday if he pad $27 and left an 18% tip, what was the total bill​

Work Shown:

x = total bill amount ignoring the tip

18% of x = 0.18x = tip amount

x+0.18x = 1.18x = amount Martin paid = 27

1.18x = 27

x = 27/1.18

x = 22.8813559322033 approximately

x = 22.88 dollars was the total bill.

Checking the

18% of 22.88 = 0.18*22.88 = 4.1184 = 4.12

Martin left a tip of $4.12

Add this on top of the bill to get 22.88+4.12 = 27

This matches with the fact he paid $27.

The answer is confirmed.

because they could drop even lower..

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
