Answer:

$70.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The total before the coupon and tax is:

$54.99 + $21.99 = $76.98

Now apply the 15% coupon:

Since the total price is 100% of the price, when you apply a 15% coupon, you pay 100% - 15% = 85% of the price. We need to find 85% of $76.98

85% * $76.98 =

= 0.85 * $76.98

= $65.43

The price after the 15% coupon, but before the tax, is $65.43

Now the total $65.43 is considered 100% of the price. The tax is 7.5%.

100% + 7.5% = 107.5%

Now we find 107.5% of $65.43

107.5% of $65.43 =

= 1.075 * $65.43

= $70.34

Answer: $70.34

Solve the equation y. 6=2(y+2)
atroni [7]

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    6-(2*(y+2))=0

Step by step solution :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 6 -  2 • (y + 2)  = 0

Pulling out like terms :

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  2 - 2y  =   -2 • (y - 1)

Equation at the end of step  3  :

 -2 • (y - 1)  = 0

Equations which are never true :

4.1      Solve :    -2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2      Solve  :    y-1 = 0

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

                     y = 1

One solution was found :

                  y = 1

After I looked up some quick information, your car loses 15-25% each year. After 5 years, it goes to only 37%. So, a car that would cost 20000 would be valued at around 7k after 5 years. So, in the first 5 years, it lost 14k. Also, a 1999 Corolla goes for 2.5k, and that's nearly 20 years. So, I'm just going to go with, based off these numbers, probably 25-30 years...if it still works by then.
Also, if you get in a heavy accident the next day, making the car unusable, you rip off your friend. The first scenario only applies if the engine works well and no accidents were on the vehicle either.
