Your 71,1482 doesn't make sense. But regardless,

let x = the other car's cost.

You know the total spent and the cost of one car. So logically, if you subtract the two you'd get the price of the second car.

You can do $38,295 + c = $71,1482.

Or $71,1482 - $38,295 = c.

Debbie found a suitcase that was originally 129 but now is on sale for 30% off. If sales tax is 8.75%, what is her final cost?
Marizza181 [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we first multiply 129 by 0.7 since the price descresed 30 percent. each percent is equal to 0.01.

129 * 0.7 = 90.3

Then we multiply 90.3 by 1.0875 since that is the sales tax

90.3 * 1.0875 = 98.2

so the cost is 98.2
