If the total bill at a restaurant, including a 15% tip, is $65.32, what is the meanl alone?
I just need help setting up the equation. I know it should be in the format of 100*_____=15*_______ but I feel like I am missing 2 parts of the equation.
Can someone please help???
Thank you!
At the restaurant 15% of the meal's cost hasbeen added on as the tip. So if M is the cost of the meal then the cost of the tip is:
Mx15/100
hence the total cost of the meal, T, is
M+(Mx15/100)=T
I think you can work it from here.
What is a pictograph?
I assume that as this is under Maths you are after a maths related answer. Pictograph...
In graph theory, a pictograph is a graph that shows numerical information by using picture symbols or icons to represent data sets. The advantage of using a pictograph is that it is easy to interpret.
This is often seen in newspapers, say to compare the size of armies with different lengths of lines of soldiers.
A rather misleading use is when a picture is scaled up in height and width to show an increase. To the eye this looks much larger as the eye is comparing the relative areas, not the heights.
The term is also used for drawings by early man.
A pictograph is a visual representation of data that uses pictures or symbols to convey information. It is a type of graph that displays numerical data in a more engaging and easily understandable way. Pictographs are commonly used to represent data sets in newspapers, reports, and presentations.
In a pictograph, each picture or symbol represents a certain quantity or value. The size or number of pictures is proportional to the data it represents. For example, if you are comparing the populations of different cities, you can use pictures of people, where each picture represents a certain number of people.
Pictographs can be created by following these steps:
1. Determine the data you want to represent. This could be any numerical information, such as the number of students in a class or the sales of a product over a period of time.
2. Select appropriate pictures or symbols to represent the data. For example, you can use pictures of apples to represent the number of apples sold in a month.
3. Assign a key or legend to indicate the value each picture represents. For instance, you could specify that each apple symbol represents 10 apples.
4. Display the pictures or symbols on a graph, using a grid or chart. Make sure to use a consistent scale and spacing to accurately represent the data.
5. Label the graph with a title and axis names to provide context and make it easier to understand.
Remember, when using pictographs, it is essential to represent the data accurately and clearly. Avoid distorting the pictures or symbols, and use a suitable scale that allows viewers to accurately interpret the information.
