Answer 2

Given:

Anton must pay a co-pay of $30 for an office visit.

His insurance company will then pay 85% of the cost of the visit.

Office visit costs $270

Solution:

`co-pay \; =\; \$30`

`Insurance \; Company \; pay = 85\% \; of\; 270 = (85)/(100) \cdot 270 = (22950)/(100)=\$ 22950\\ \\ Anton \; Pay\; remaining \; of\; what\; Insurance\; Company\; pay.\\ \\ So, \; Anton \; Pay = \$270 - \$229.50=\$40.5\\ \\`

Conclusion:

Anton totally Pay = Remaining amount for office visit + Co-pay for office visit

`Anton \; pay \; for\; an \; office \; visit \; that\; costs \; \$270\; = \; \$30 \; + \; \$40.5\; =\; \$70.5`
