Answer: The total cost of computer would be $719.95
Step-by-step explanation:
I use proportions for these types of problems so we begin with a proportion!
20/100=x/849
100x=16980
x=169.80
Then, after finding how much the discount is, we would subtract it.
849-169.80=679.20
Next, we would find the tax amount with another proportion to find what 6 percent of 679.20 is.
6/100=x/679.20
100x=4075.2
x=40.75
Lastly, we would add the tax, $40.75, plus the total after the discount, $679.20!
Hope this helps! Good luck! (:
