Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items
Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
I think the answer would be 9 or 18 not really sure
Answer:
a<-3
bc -3(-2)=6
so if u go lower which the next number would be -4(-2)=8 which is greaterthan 6

Answer:
$9.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The question above is a simple interest question.
The formula for the amount of money after a given period of time using simple interest is given as:
A = P(1 + rt)
Where
P = Initial Amount saved or invested = $8
R = Interest rate = 5%
t = Time in years = 4
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year.
Solving our equation:
A = 8(1 + (0.05 × 4)) = 9.6
A = $9.60
The amount of money that will be in a bank account after 4 years is $9.60
