Algebra Problem! Need Help Asap!?
Suppose that a waiter makes $40 a day, plus 70% of the tip money he receives. The equation expressing the total daily pay as a function of tip money received is h(x) = 40 + 0.7x. How much would the waiter make in a day if he received $57 in tip money?
Need this simplified into steps

Easy. In the equation, X represents the money he makes in tips. So, if he made $57 in tips, plug it in where X is. $40 plus 70% (or 0.7 times) however much he makes in tips gives you his daily earnings.
h(57) = 40 + 0.7(57)
This would give you your answer in dollars.
L = length = 3W - 5 (5 under thrice the width) W = Width P = Perimeter = 22 the fringe will equivalent 2L + 2W P = 2L + 2W replace the recent expression for L from above 22 = 2(3W - 5) + 2W 22 = 6W - 10 + 2 W combine like words 22 = 8W - 10 upload 10 to the two factors of the equation 22 + 10 = 8W - 10 + 10 32 = 8W divide the two factors of the equation by skill of 8 4 = W The width of the rectangle = 4 <==== making use of the two between the equations above, resolve for L P = 2L + 2W 22 = 2L + 2(4) 22 = 2L + 8 22 - 8 = 2L + 8 - 8 14 = 2L 7 = L The length of the rectangle = 7 <==== ---------------------- might even have used this expression to unravel for L L = length = 3W - 5 L = 3W - 5 L = 3(4) - 5 L = 12 - 5 L = 7 <====
=40+57*0.7=79.9
just insert the tips of 57 into the equation
.7 of his tip is the money that he gets. If his tip is 57, he gets .7(57) = 39.9. He gets 40 dollars a day on top of that, so his total is 79.90 dollars.
h(x) = 0.7x + 40
x = 57
h(57) = 0.7(57) + 40
h(57) = 39.9 + 40
h(57) = 79.9
The waiter would make $79.90

1)57x.70=______**tip money
2)add that to the 40 dollars he made
3)there's your answer
what grade are u in if u dont mind me asking?
yay first to answer and everyone else got same thing
