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%.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (–1, 4) with slope 2. A. y+1=−2(x−4) B. y+1=2(x−4) C. y−4=2(x+1) D.
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

y-4=2\,(x+1)

which agrees with answer C in your list of possible answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the general point-slope form of a line of slope m and going through the point (x_0, y_0):

y-y_0=m(x-x_0)

which in our case, given the info on the slope (2) and the point (-1, 4) becomes:

y-y_0=m\,(x-x_0)\\y-4=2\,(x-(-1))\\y-4=2\,(x+1)

Two events, X and Y, are independent of each other. P(Y) = 5/6 and P(X and Y) = 1/3. What is P(X) written as a decimal? Round to
Ksenya-84 [330]
For independent events,
P(X &cap; Y) = P(X)* P(Y)
=>
1/3 = P(X)*(5/6)
solve for P(X) =>
P(X) = (1/3)*(6/5) = 2/5 = 0.4
