Answer:

$40.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The regular price of the fishing rod is $97

There is a 60% discount from that price.

The discount is equal to 60% of $97 which is equal to .60 * $97 which is equal to $58.2

Discount is like a markdown, so subtract $58.2 from the price of the item before the change to get $97 - $58.2 = $38.8 

This is the price of the item before tax is applied.

Now you apply the sales tax of 4%.

4% of $38.8 is equal to .04 * $38.8 which is equal to $1.552

Tax is like a markup, so add $1.552 to the price of the item before tax was applied to get a selling price of $38.8 + $1.552 which is equal to $40.352

Round it up and the answer is $40.4

What is the value of x in the equation of 4x + 1.3 = - 7.9
il63 [147K]

Answer:

x = -2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 1.3 = -7.9

First we want to combine the like terms.

Subtract 1.3 from both sides.

4x = -9.2

Now we want to isolate x by dividing both sides by 4.

x = -2.3

Check your answer by plugging x back into the original equation.

4x + 1.3 = -7.9

4(-2.3) + 1.3 = -7.9

Multiply.

-9.2 + 1.3 = -7.9

Add.

-7.9 = -7/9

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!
