Answer:

a) $26

b) 24.07%

c) $94.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Before tax:

Normal price of dress = $62

Discounted price of dress = $48

Normal price of a pair of shoes = $46

Discounted price of a pair of shoes = $34

a) Before the sales tax, total savings = ($64 - $48) + ($46 - $34) = <em>$26</em>

b) Total percentage discount on total sales.

Total bill for original price = $62 + $46 = $108

Percentage discount can be found by the formula:

\dfrac{\text{Total discount}}{\text{Total bill for original price}}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{26}{108} \times 100 = 24.07\%

c) Total amount paid if the sales tax is 15%.

Amount paid with tax = Amount after discount + 15% of amount after discount

Amount after discount = $48 + $34 = $82

15% of $82 = $18.29

Amount paid with sales tax = $82 + $12.3 = <em>$94.3</em>

Answer:

- 3y² - 7y + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(- 3y + 2)(y + 3)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

- 3y (y + 3) + 2(y + 3) ← distribute both parenthesis

= - 3y² - 9y + 2y + 6 ← collect like terms

There will be three pairs of matching sides: one pair 5x7, one pair 5x12 and one pair 12x7. We can compute the are of each side (in pairs) and then add up the total:

A_{surf}=2\times(l \times w)+2\times(l \times h)+2\times(h \times w)
A_{surf}=2\times(5\times7)+2\times(5\times12)+2\times(12\times7)
A_{surf}=2\times35+2\times60+2\times84
A_{surf}=70+120+168
A_{surf}=358
A_{surf}=358m^{2}
