Answer: $56.97

=============================================

Explanation:

"25% off" means the buyer pays 75% of the original cost, ignoring any other taxes, fees, shipping, etc.

75% = 75/100 = 0.75

Multiply this decimal value with the original cost 72 and we get 0.75*72 = 54.

-----------

Now we compute the sales tax

5.5% = 5.5/100 = 0.055

0.055*54 = 2.97 is paid in tax

-----------

Add the sales tax ($2.97) to the discount price ($54) to get 54+2.97 = 56.97

We don't add on shipping because that is free. The sales tax is applied after the discount is done, or else it would imply that the 25% discount didn't fully go through (ie you are paying some portion of what was promised to be saved)

A shortcut is to compute: 72*0.75*1.055 = 56.97 which allows us to basically find the answer in one single step. The 1.055 refers to the 5.5% tax multiplier. A similar trick can be used if you have multiple discounts applied simultaneously.

Need help with these 2 questions
MArishka [77]

Answer: 1. x= -12           2. x= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 5(+3)=−45

5x+15−15=−45−15

5x= -60

5x/5 = -60/5

x = -60/5

x= -12

2. 1x/2−4=2

x/2 -4=22−4+4=2+4

/2=6

2⋅2=2⋅6

x=2⋅6

x= 12
