65.16 is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

200 hats

cost = 65.16

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 baseball caps and 30% of all hats are baseball caps

baseball caps = hats times percentage baseball caps

60 = hats * 30%

60 = hats *.30

Divide each side by .30

60/.30 = hats *.30/30

200 = hats

There are 200 hats in the store

We want to buy 2 blue baseball hats at 30 each at 8.6% sales tax

The cost of the hats is

2*30 = 60

Now we need to find the tax

tax = cost * sales tax rate

tax = 60 * 8.6%

tax = 60 *.086

tax = 5.16

The total cost is the cost of the hats plus the tax

total cost = cost + tax

                 =60+5.16  

                  =65.16
