Answer:

$60.00 * 1.075 * .6 + 5.99 = $44.69

when you have multiple fees and discounts and taxes and whatever else, you should follow the order of all operations.  multiplication and division before addition and subtraction, and so on.  

Step-by-step explanation:

For discount and sales tax you multiply, and for shipping you just add the fee.  We will save shipping for last since it doesn't effect the discount or tax.  Meanwhile you could apply the discount and tax in any order.

To apply a discount you take the price and multiply by 1 minus the percent in decimal form.  decimal form of a percent is basically the number divided by 100.  so 40% = .4 then 1 - .4 = .6

to apply a ttax you multiply 1 plus the percent in decimal form.  tax is 7.5% so in decimal form that's .075 then 1 plus the tax is 1.075

so now you multiply 60 * .6 * 1.075 and also remember 60 * .6 * 1.075 = 60 *  1.075 * .6 but the answer is $38.70

Now add the shipping, so 38.70 + 5..99 = $44.69

According to DeMorgan 's theorem, the complement of W · X + Y · Z is W' + X' · Y' + Z'. Yet both functions are 1 for WXYZ = 1110
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The parenthesis need to be kept intact while applying the DeMorgan's theorem on the original equation to find the compliment because otherwise it will introduce an error in the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to DeMorgan's Theorem:

(W.X + Y.Z)'

(W.X)' . (Y.Z)'

(W'+X') . (Y' + Z')

Note that it is important to keep the parenthesis intact while applying the DeMorgan's theorem.

For the original function:

(W . X + Y . Z)'

= (1 . 1 + 1 . 0)

= (1 + 0) = 1

For the compliment:

(W' + X') . (Y' + Z')

=(1' + 1') . (1' + 0')

=(0 + 0) . (0 + 1)

=0 . 1 = 0

Both functions are not 1 for the same input if we solve while keeping the parenthesis intact because that allows us to solve the operation inside the parenthesis first and then move on to the operator outside it.

Without the parenthesis the compliment equation looks like this:

W' + X' . Y' + Z'

1' + 1' . 1' + 0'

0 + 0 . 0 + 1

Here, the 'AND' operation will be considered first before the 'OR', resulting in 1 as the final answer.

Therefore, it is important to keep the parenthesis intact while applying DeMorgan's Theorem on the original equation or else it would produce an erroneous result.
