So,

The total cost = cost + sales tax

cost + sales tax = x or total cost

1. cost = $245

2. sales tax = 0.065(cost)

245 + 0.065(cost) = x

Simplify
245 + 15.925 = x

Round to the nearest hundredth
245 + 15.93 = x

Collect Like Terms

260.93 = x

The total cost of the speakers, including tax, is $260.93.

In order to find out what the additional value of the sales tax would be,which is 6.5%, you have to find 1% of $245. Which is $2.45. As you're looking for 6.5%, you have to multiply $2.45 by 6.5, which gives you $15.93 (rounded). In order to find the cost including the sales tax, you have to add $15.93 to the original price of $245, which gives you $260.93. Therefore, the price of the speakers, including a sales tax of 6.5% is $260.93 Hope this helps :)

The perimeter of a rectangle garden is 54yd. One side has a length of 15 yd. Find the area of the garden.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

=》Area = 180 sq.yd

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2l + 2b

where, we have l = 15

  • so (2×15) + 2b = 54
  • 30 + 2b = 54
  • 2b = 24
  • b = 12

now, Area = l × b = 12 × 15 = 180 sq.yd

Compute using long division: 1,234÷68
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Quotient = 18

Remainder = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1234/68

=> 68 x 1 = 68

=> 123 - 68 = 55

=> Take the 4 down

=> 554/68

=> 68 x 8 = 544

=> 554 - 544  = 10

So, the quotient = 18.

Remainder = 10
