Given :
Devin is buying 2 concert tickets. The concert tickets have a regular price of $40 each.
Devin has a coupon that gives a 5% discount off of the regular price of the tickets. He will then pay a 10% purchasing fee on the discounted price of the tickets.
To Find :
Devin's total cost of the two tickets after the discount and the fee.
Solution :
Discount on price, D = 40×0.05 = $2 .
Price of product after discount, P = $( 40 - 2 ) = $38 .
Now, total price after adding purchasing fee is :
T = P + (P×0.10)
T = 38 + (38×0.10)
T = 38 + 3.8
T = $41.8
Therefore, Devin's total cost of the two tickets after the discount and the fee is $41.8 .
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
19.53
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find the new price of the backpack:
40% of 29.99 is
29.99 * 0.40 = 11.99
So the new price of the backpack is
29.99 - 11.99 = 18.00
Now let's find the price with tax
8.5% of 18.00 is
18.00 * 0.085 = 1.53
So the cost of the backpack is
18.00 + 1.53 = $19.53
