<u>Answer:</u> The amount that patty and ales paid including taxes was $40.96.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
To calculate the cost of the shirt and sweater together, we first calculate the total cost of shirt and sweater individually.
- <u>Amount paid by Patty:</u>
Shirt of $14.50 + 9% tax
Tax paid =
Amount of tax paid = ($14.50 × 0.09) = $1.305
Amount paid by patty = $14.50 + $1.305 = $15.805
- <u>Amount paid by Ales:</u>
Sweater of $22.95 + 9% tax
Tax paid =
Amount of tax paid = ($22.95 × 0.09) = $2.0655
Amount paid by ales = $22.95 + $2.0655 = $25.0155
- Total amount paid by both Patty and ales = $15.805 + $25.0155 = $40.96
Hence, the amount that patty and ales paid including taxes was $40.96.
Answer:
A. 1.65 k = 48
B. 105
Step-by-step explanation:
- If we name "k" the amount of apples that Kayla has, and "r" the amount of apples thata Richard has, we know that r + k =48 (the two of them together have 48 apples).
- In addition, we know that Kayla has 35% more apples than Richard. This means that k (1-0.35) = r (the apples of Richard are 0.35 % smaller than the apples of Kayla). Then 0.65 k = r
- Then, taking these two considerations together, r + k= 48 and 0.65 k= r, imply 0.65 k + k = 48 (I just replace the second equation into the first one). Which finally means that k= 29 (and r = 19 because r+ k=48).
- If Kayla has 162 apples, and according previous statements, she has 35% more apples than Richard, this means that 0.65 k= r, therfore if k=162, r= 162 x 0.65 = 105 (Richar has 105 apples).
