I find it easiest to subtract and add the percentages to make a multiplier, then use that.
After the man's discount, he pays (100% - 12%) = 88% of the list price. After tax, he pays (100% + 3%) = 103% of the discounted price.
The amount he actually pays is $255×0.88×1.03 = $231.13.
The best choice is ...
(B) $231.13
<span>One <u>possible model</u><span> is:
You could place 3 red marble and 1 blue marble in a bag. The probability of drawing a red marble would be 3/4, which is 75%; this means red marbles would be sunny days and blue marbles would be cloudy days.
Each draw out of the bag would represent one day of the week. Draw a marble 7 times, replacing it after each draw. This would represent the weather for the days of the week.</span></span>
Let's use a formula in order to find how much the interior angles are supposed to add up to.
(n-2)×180; n is the number of angles.
(5-2)×180= 3×180=540
We need for the interior angles to add up to 540. Let's make an equation.
100+102+108+121+x=540
431+x=540; let's find x.
540-431= 109
So, X= 109°
