Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items
Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
12 ounces will be left in the bottle
Turn the 1/4 into a decimal which is 0.25 and times that by 20 and you’ll get 5, 5 is the amount of ounces you poured for your friend. Subtract 20 ounces by 5 ounces and you’ll get 15 ounces, then subtract 15 by 3 which is the amount of juice you poured for yourself and you’ll be left with 12 ounces in the bottle.
Answer:
104
155
180
Step-by-step explanation:
an easy way is to solve what is in the parenthesis then multiply by the outside number
but if you need to use the distributive property:
1. 4 x (20 - -6)
(4 x 20) - (4 x -6) = 80 - -24 = 80 + 24 = 104
2. -5 x (24 - -7)
(-5 x 24) - (-5 x -7) = -120 - 35 = 155
3. 12 x (-30 + 45)
(12 x -30) + (12 x 45) = -360 + 540 = 180
The answer is B
Since you know that BOD is a right angle add 12 And 15 and subtract your answer from 90
