Question

Katie bought 4 sweaters that each cost the same amount and 1 skirt that cost $20.The items she bought cost a total of 160$ before tax was​ added.What was the cost of each sweater

Answer 1

At a local restaurant, a couple ordered two dinners for $12.50 each and two drinks for $1.50 each. If the couple left an 18% tip, what was the total cost of the meal?

Answer 2

let x = cost of each sweater

4x + $20 = $160
4x = $160 - $20
4x = $140
x = $140/4
x = $35
