There is a seven 1/2% sales tax added to the party bill. mrs. gutierrez also wants to add an 18% tip for the servers. this will be figured before tax is added. what will be the total cost of the party?

1.255 times the party bill. x = party bill s = sales tax t = tip C = total cost = the bill, plus the sales tax, and the tip C = x + s + t We know that both the sales tax and the tip are percentages based on the party bill. The sales tax is equal to 7.5% of the party bill. The tip is equal to 18% of the party bill. so, s = (0.075)*x and, t = (0.18)*x Then we replace the s and the t in our equation, C = x + 0.075x + 0.18x Then, we add the elements together. C = (1+0.075+0.18)x C = 1.255x

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q )0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( 2 + 5 i ),   by multiplying these0 = ( 4 + 10 i - 8 - 20 i )0 = 4 - 8 + 10 i - 20 i0 = - 4 -10 i   0 = 2 ( - 2 - 5 i )0 / 2 = - 2 - 5 i- 2 - 5 i = 0- 5 i = 2i = 2 / - 5
