Answer 1

6.89 + t = 8.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount that she left $8.00 includes the amount she owed ($6.89) plus a tip for the waiter t. It means that $8.00 is equal to $6.89 plus the tip t.

Therefore, the equation is:

8.00 = 6.89 + t

Or which is equal

6.89 + t = 8.00

Then, the answer is:

6.89 + t = 8.00
