Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.85. All merchandise is discounted by 12%. What is the total cost of th

e skateboard if Luis has to pay a state sales tax of 7.25%? Round your intermediate calculations and answer to the nearest cent.
this is how it solved now use this to solve the next question pls if it is right I will mark you brainliest it is obviously wrong that I don't have to think about it then I will report you

Analyze Information
The skateboard costs $79.85.
The discount is 12%, or 0.12.
The sales tax is 7.25%, or 0.0725.
Formulate a Plan
Calculate the discount and subtract it from the original total. Calculate the sales tax and add it to the discounted price.
Solve
Discount: 0.12 × $79.85 ≈ $9.58
Skateboard − Discount = Sale Price
$79.85 − $9.58 = $70.27
Sales tax: 0.0725 × $70.27 ≈ $5.09
Sale Price + Sales Tax = Final Price
$70.27 + $5.09 = $75.36
The total cost of the skateboard is $75.36.



what is the answer to this I don't need an explanation!

Answer:

Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.99

all merchandise is discounted by 12% = 0.12

Discount amount = sale price * discount percentage

= 79.99 * 0.12 = 9.5988

Selling price after discount = 79.99 - 9.5988 = 70.3912

Now we apply sales tax for the price after discount

sales tax of 6.75 % = 0.0675

Tax amount = price after discount * tax percentage

= 70.3912 * 0.0675= 4.751406

the total cost of the skateboard = Price after discount + tax amount

=70.3912 + 4.751406 = 75.142606

$75.14 is  the total cost of the skateboard

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The quantitative variables in this case are:

A.  Speed

D.  GForce

E.  Height

G. Duration

H. Numinversions

J.  Length

Step-by-step explanation:

One criteria to differentiate qualitative variables from quantitative variables is to determine if mathematical calculations over these variables makes sense.

If it makes sense, it is a quantitative variable.

For example, binary variables, although they can be represented by 0 and 1, would be a qualitative variable.

The quantitative variables in this case are:

A.  Speed

D.  GForce

E.  Height

G. Duration

H. Numinversions

J.  Length

They all will be represented by numbers for which mathematical operations make sense.

A club raised 175% of its goal for a charity. The club raises $875. What was the goal?
charle [14.2K]

Answer: The goal was $500

======================================================

Work Shown:

x% = x/100

175% = 175/100 = 1.75

Let g be the goal, which is the amount of money the club wanted to raise

175% of goal = 175% of g = 1.75g

The expression 1.75g represents how much money was actually raised, which was $875. Set the two expressions equal to each other. Solve for g

1.75g = 875

g = 875/1.75 ....... divide both sides by 1.75

g = 500

The club's goal was to raise $500

Note how 75% of $500 is 0.75*500 = 375

When they raised 175% of the goal, this means they went 75% overboard and added on 375 additional dollars (on top of the 500 they wanted). So they got to 500+375 = 875 which lines up with the instructions. This helps verify the answer.

Or we can see that 1.75*g = 1.75*500 = 875 which helps confirm the answer as well.
