$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.

Two taxi companies in a city only charge by mileage and do not charge an initial fee. If Taxi 1 charges $3.00 per miles and Taxi
Bumek [7]

Answer:

A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Charges of taxi 1 = $3.00 per mile

Charges of taxi 2 = $1.77 per kilometer

1 mile = 1.61 kilometers

To find:

Cost of a 12 miles ride for taxi 1 and taxi 2.

Solution:

Let us first convert the charges of each taxi to per mile.

Taxi 1 charges are already given in per mile.

Charges for 1 mile = $3

Charges for 12 miles = 3 \times 12 = <em>$36</em>

Taxi 2 charges = 1.77 \times 1.61 = $2.85 per mile

Charges for 12 miles = 2.85 \times 12 = <em>$34.20</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the answer is:

<em>A 12 mile ride in Taxi 1 costs $36.00, and in Taxi 2 it costs $34.20.</em>

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2 is the answer.

If the boy is twice as old, and the sister's age is represented by <em>x</em>, then we multiply 2 to x to represent the boy's age.

Then we add 2 when 2 years pass by.
