$275*.15(15%)=41.25 (this is the amount of the discount)

$275-$41.25=$233.75 (cost of jacket after discount)

$233.75* .0725=$16.946(round to $16.95, this is the amount of the sales tax).

If you want to know the total cost after tax just add $16.95 to the discounted price of $233.75. The price you pay for the jacket is $250.70.

Answer:

$16.95

Step-by-step explanation:

A department store is having a 15% off sale on all winter coats.

The cost of the winter coat that you purchased = $275

The price after discount of 15% = 275 -(15% × 275)

                                                    = 275 - (0.15 × 275)

                                                    = 275 - 41.25

                                                    = $233.75

Sales tax rate on that location = 7.25%

Sales tax which you would pay = 7.25% × 233.75

                                                    = 0.0725 × 233.75

                                                    = $16.9468 ≈ $16.95

You have to pay $16.95 sales tax.

A biker’s speed is 1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed. They start moving simultaneously in the same direction from the same
worty [1.4K]
Let the walker’s speed be W, then the biker’s is W+1.5W=2.5W. Difference in speed is 1.5W. Distance=speed times time, so 12.5=1.5W×1.5=2.25W, and W=12.5/2.25=1250/225=50/9=5.56 mph. The biker’s speed is 2.5W=125/9=13.89 mph to 2 Dec places.
(Note: “1.5 times faster than a walker’s speed” could not reasonably mean the biker’s speed=1.5W because this would give W=16.67 mph, which is very fast for a runner, let alone a walker (!), and a biker’s speed of 25mph.)
