Answer:

$74.75

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to tax, the sales tax is applied <em>after</em> the discount is provided by the store, as long as it is something like a direct store coupon or a discounted price. In this case, it is a discounted price by the store, so we will include sales tax after.

$79.20 after a 12% discount becomes $69.70 (or $69.696).

The state tax applies to this new price.

7.25% of $69.70 is $74.75

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

a) 0.2

b) 0.2

c) 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the event "the car stops at the signal.

In the attached figure you can see a tree describing all possible scenarios.

For the first question the red path describes stopping at the first light but not stopping at the second. We can determine the probability of this path happening by multiplying the probabilities on the branches of the tree, thus

P(a)=0.4\times0.5=0.2

For the second one the blue path describes the situation

P(b)=0.4\times 0.5=0.2

For the las situation the sum of the two green path will give us the answer

P(c)=0.6\times 0.5 + 0.4\times 0.5=0.3+0.2=0.5

2. h - 2 = 0
add 2
h = 2

3. 2h - 1 = 0
Add 1
2h = 1
divide by 2
h = 1/2
