Question

Mackenzie is a waitress at a restaurant. Each day she works, Mackenzie will make a guaranteed wage of $25, however the additional amount that Mackenzie earns from tips depends on the number of tables she waits on that day. From past experience, Mackenzie noticed that she will get about $15 in tips for each table she waits on. How much would Mackenzie expect to earn in a day on which she waits on 13 tables? How much would Mackenzie expect to make in a day when waiting on tt tables?

Answers

  1. Answer:
    $25 + $15tt
    Step-by-step explanation:
    On a day when Mackenzie waits on 13 tables, she will earn a total of $25 in guaranteed wage plus $15 in tips for each table, for a total of $25 + (13 tables * $15/table) = $25 + $195 = $220.
    If Mackenzie waits on tt tables, she will earn a total of $25 in guaranteed wage plus $15 in tips for each table, for a total of $25 + (tt tables * $15/table) = $25 + $15tt.
    So, if Mackenzie waits on tt tables, she can expect to earn $25 + $15tt.
