Answer
Find out the what is the sale price of the jeans including tax .
To prove
Let us assume that the sale price of the jeans including tax be x .
As given
Michael is buying a pair of jeans that regularly cost $40.
They are on sale for 20% off.
If the tax rate is 8% .
20% is written in the decimal form
= 0.20
8% is written in the decimal form
= 0.08
Than the equation becomes
x = 40 - 40 × 0.20 + 40 × 0.08
x = 40 - 8 + 3.2
x = 43.2 - 8
x = $35.2
Therefore the sale price of the jeans including tax be $ 35.2 .

Answer:
The first one or the 2nd one, since it says NOT worth half, I would say the first one is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
We observe that 14 is 4 more than twice 5.
The scooter's rate is 14 mph.
The bicycle's rate is 5 mph.
_____
time = distance/rate
14/(2b +4) = 5/b . . . . . . let b represent the bicycle's speed in mi/h
14b = 10b +20 . . . . . . . .cross multiply
4b = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10b
b = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4. Same answer as above.
108/4 = 27 pieces you multiply 36 x 3 = 108 and the denominator stays the same so 108/4 equals to 27 pieces
