Answer:

Part A) The correct Expression : (1.05)(190)(0.8)

=> The error of Joel was that instead of adding the sales tax, he subtracted it.

Part B) $159.60

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Part A:</em></u>

To calculate the computer cost, we need to find out the selling price first.

There's a discount of 20% so the selling price will be 100% - 20% = 80% =>80/100 = 0.8

<em>So, We'll multiply the cost price by 0.8</em>

=> (190)(0.8)

But, there is a sales tax of 5%

<u><em>So, the selling price with cost price will be:</em></u>

=> 100% + 5% = 105%  => 105/100 = 1.05 (We'll multiply this too with the first equation that we made above)

So, the expression will be:

=> (1.05)(190)(0.8)

The error of Joel was that instead of adding the sales tax, he subtracted it.

<u><em>Part B)</em></u>

<u><em>Joel will pay for the tablet:</em></u>

=> (1.05)(190)(0.8)  [We used the above expression]

=> $159.60

Hey I have a link to the question since its kinda complicated
Natalija [7]
Anyway

so the recursive rule tells the relationship between the previous term and the term we want to find

given

an=2n+11
it is clear that the first term is 13
2nd term is 15
3rd term is 17

each term increases by 2
so
a term is equal to the previous term plus 2
an=a(n-1)+2

the first one is the answer
