Oscar and Kim have $22.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 30% discount. They both want to purchase a

copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if he has enough to purchase the book, Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Kim takes 70% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Oscar correct? Is Kim correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences and show your work.

Answer:

Your answer: Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Book normally sells for 28.50 + 10% sales tax

Oscar :

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95

Kim :

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = 21.95

Add 3x to both sides 
3x = -18 

Divide both sides by 3 
x = -6

An angle measures 80° more than the measure of a complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Rom4ik [11]

Supplementary angles sum to 180 degree  

Let one angle be x  

Then the other angle is x+80  

Summing the 2 angle gives  

x+x+80=180

2x+80=180

2x=180-80

X=50

Thus the angles are 50 degree and 50+80= 130 degree
