Question

A Delivery service charges $25 per pound for making a delivery. If there is an additional 8% sales tax, what is the cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound?

Answer 1

The cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound?$21.60.  

How to find the delivery cost?

Let x = the number of pounds

Thus, we can say that;

Cost = 25x * 1.08

Since we want to find the cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound, the we will put 4/5 for x to get;

Cost = (25 * 4/5) * 1.08

Cost = 20 * 1.08

Cost = 21.6

The delivery cost would be $21.60.
