Answer:

 $4.37 cash outlay

 $29.37 total amount paid, partly with gift card

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount was ...

  0.15 × $32.30 = $4.845 ≈ $4.85

So the price to which tax is added is ...

  $32.30 -4.85 = $27.45

The amount of tax is 7% of this value, or ...

  tax = $27.45 × 0.07 = $1.9215 ≈ $1.92

So, payment is made on the amount ...

  $27.45 + 1.92 = $29.37

$29.37 is the total amount paid.

If $25 is paid using a gift card, then the cash outlay is $4.37.

_____

Usually only a single coupon can be applied to a given purchase. Since the 15% store discount exceeds the amount of the 5% coupon left at home, it makes more sense to claim the 15% store discount and save the 5% coupon for another time.

__

<em>Alternate interpretation</em>

If, by some magic, both discounts could be applied, then the amount to be paid is $27.65, of which $2.65 exceeds the gift card amount. The calculation proceeds the same way, except that 20% is used instead of 15%.

The difference of two numbers is 4. Their sum is 18. Find the numbers.
Travka [436]

Answer:

11 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let these two numbers be x and y where x is greater than y.

We can write two equations from the given information:

x - y = 4

and

x + y = 18

If we add them together, the y's cancel out:

x - y = 4

x + y = 18

2x = 22

x = 11

y is 4 less than x, meaning it is 7.

The two numbers are 11 and 7

Answer: 1.) 14.66666666666667
2.) 20

Steps:
1.) 180 = 3x + 136
180 -136 = 3x
44 = 3x
44/3 = x
14.66666666666667 = x

2.) 70 + x = 90
x = 90 - 70
x = 20

I would appreciate brainliest if this was helpful and correct! ;)

Last year, Mr Salim bought a car for $120 000. This year, he sold it at a discount of 10%. How much did Mr Salim sell his car fo
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

$108000

Explanation:

  • He sold it at a discount 10%
  • sale price = 100% - discount percentage
  • 100% - 10% = 90%

now the price:

→ $120 000 * 90%

→ 120 000 * \frac{90}{100}

→ 1200 * 90

→ $108000
