The total cost of the skate board is $74.61.
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given, Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.99. all merchandise is discounted by 12%. luis has to pay a state sales tax of 6.75%.
We need to find what is the total cost of the skateboard.
Final cost is nothing but original amount subtracted by discount and added with tax.
final cost = original cost – discount + sales tax
Original cost = $79.99
Discount = 12% of original cost

discount is $9.6 approximately
Sales tax = 6% of cost after discounting

Sales tax is $4.22 approximately
Now, final cost = 79.99 – 9.6 + 4.22
= 84.21 - 9.6
= 74.61
Hence, the total cost of the skate board is $74.61
Answer:
<h3> -8(2x +x )/-2y = - 30</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
x=-5, y=2 and z=0
-8(2x +x )/-2y =(-8•3x)/-2y = [-8•3(-5)] / (-2•2) = 120/(-4) =-30
Hello!
To solve algebraic equations, we need to first, simplify the common terms, and secondly use SADMEP. SADMEP is strictly used to solve algebraic equations, and is used like PEMDAS. SADMEP is an acronym for subtract, addition, division, multiplication, exponents, and parentheses.
25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 1 - x (simplify the common terms)
25 - 4x = 16 - 4x (subtract 16 from both sides)
9 - 4x = -4x (add 4x to both sides)
9 = 0 → This means that there is no solutions.
Therefore, this equation has no solutions, which are contradictions because those are the equations with no solution.
