Answer 1

`y=x+0.2x`

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that Dillon paid $x for a haircut.

and gave a tip of 20% of the amount he paid, this is expressed as

=20/100*x

=0.2x

Let the total amount he paid, that is haircut plus tip be y

the expression for the total amount is

`y=x+0.2x`

here x represents the amount he paid

0.2 represents 20% of the haircut
