Given that a<span> local RadioShack store wants to buy a new line of plasma TVs. Manufacturer A offers chain discounts of 18/12, and Manufacturer B offers terms of 17/13.

Let the list price of the plasma TVs be x, then after a chain discount of 18/12 by Manufacturer A, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.18)(1 - 0.12)x = 0.82(0.88)x = 0.7216x

Also, after the discount of 17/13 by manufacturer B, the selling price of the plasma TVs will be (1 - 0.17)(1 - 0.13)x = 0.83(0.87)x = 0.7221x

Thus, the final selling price after discount by manufacturer A is 0.7216 and the final selling price after dscount by manufacturer B is 0.7221x.

Therefore, Manufacturer A offers a </span><span>single equivalent discount rate that is the best deal.</span>

If you make $3.80 an hour plus tips, what is your paycheck for the week if you worked 40 hours and made $250.00 dollars in tips?
lesya [120]

Answer:

$402

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

If you made 3.80 an hour and worked 40 we can multiply these to find the total amount you earned.

3.80 * 40 = 152

You also made 250 in tips so we add that to the total

152+250 = 402

The answer is $402

Hope this helps!
