Gerard has spent less than 1/2 of his lunch money.

 The correct option is

(A) Gerard has spent less than of his lunch money.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Gerard has $30 to spend on lunches this month that costs him $1.50 each day.

We are to find the correct statement after Gerard buys lunch for 8 days.

We have

Cost of Lunch for one day = $1.50.

So, cost of lunch for 8 days will be

That is, Gerard has spent $12 of his lunch money in 8 days.

Also, the total amount of money Gerard has for lunch = $30.

So, half of the lunch money will be

Since, 12 < 15, so Gerard has spent less than of his lunch money.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

answer: 2x + 2 − 2 = 10 − 2; subtraction property of equality

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
