Answer 1

`25+(20\% * 25)`

Explanation:

Given : A restaurant bill is $25, and a 20 percent tip should be given to the waiter.

To Find: which expression can be used to find the total amount that will be paid

Solution:

A restaurant bill is $25.

A 20 percent tip should be given to the waiter.

So, Tip =
`20\% * 25`

So, total amount that will be paid =
`25+(20\% * 25)`

=
`25+((20)/(100) * 25)`

=
`25+5`

=
`30`

Thus the total amount is $30

Hence the expression can be used to find the total amount that will be paid is
`25+(20\% * 25)`

Answer 2

Cost= 25 +0.2*25
