Answer:

<u>Joel will have to pay $ 159.60 for the tablet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Discount percentage of the tablets = 20%

Original cost of the tablet = $ 190

Sales tax = 5%

2. How much will Joel pay for the tablet? Show your work in your notebook. Remember to use $.

Let's find the discounted price and the sales tax for that price, this way:

Discounted price = Original price - Discount

Discounted price = 190 - (190 * 0.2)

Discounted price = 190 - 38 = 152

Sales tax of the discounted price = 152 * 0.05

Sales tax = 7.60

Joel will have to pay = Discounted price + Sales tax

Joel will have to pay = 152 + 7.60

<u>Joel will have to pay = $ 159.60</u>

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the map, 3 inches = 10 miles in real life.

Therefore:

10 miles: 3 Inches

1$ miles rep $ \dfrac{3}{10}$ inches

Distance on the map

\dfrac{3}{10}$ X 53.25 inches\\=15.975 inches

The distance between the two buildings on the map is therefore: 15\dfrac{39}{40} $ inches
