Answer:

The cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Business services ordered a chair that cost $220.59.

if the California sales tax rate is 7.9%

7.9% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{7.9}{100}

= 0.079

Thus

Sales tax price = 0.079 × Cost of the chair

                         = 0.079 × $220.59

                         = $ 17.43 (Approx)

Thus

Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price = Cost of the chair + Sales tax price .

                                                                            = $ 220.59 + $17.43

                                                                            = $ 238.02

As given

Upon arrival they received an invoice for $261.47.

Thus

Cost of  shipping and handling = Cost mentioned in invoice - Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price.

Put all the values in the above

Cost of  shipping and handling = $261.47 - $238.02

                                                   = $ 23.45

Therefore the cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Answer:

Cost of shipping and handling = $23.453

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of Chair=$220.59

Tax=7.9%

Invoice Price=$261.47

In order to find the cost of shipping and handling, we have to subtract the cost of chair and the tax from the invoice price of chair.

To find the tax,

Tax amount=220.59*0.079

=$17.42661

Now,

Cost of shipping and handling=$261.47-$220.59-$17.42661

=$23.453 ..

Each week, Mrs.Mack buys exactly 3 5/8 pounds of cheese for her mac-and-cheese recipe. She chooses from these kinds of cheese. M
ryzh [129]

Answer:

  • 3 packages of American (7/8 lb)
  • 2 packages of cheddar (1/2 lb)

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of cheese Mrs Mack needs is an odd number of eighths of a pound. So, she must buy an odd number of the 7/8 pound packages.

If she were to buy any 1/5 pound packages, she would have to buy a multiple of 5 of them so as to have an integral number of eighths. The only suitable multiple is 0.

If Mrs Mack buys 1 of the 7/8 pound packages, she cannot make up the difference with half-pound packages. She must buy 3 of the 7/8 pound packages, for a total of 2 5/8 pounds of American cheese. The remaining pound can be bought as 2 of the 1/2 pound packages.

To buy 3 5/8 pounds, Mrs Mack must purchase ...

  3 packages of American cheese (7/8 lb each)

  2 packages of Cheddar cheese (1/2 lb each)
