Question

Mal works at a photo gallery. He charges $50 for a large photo and $40 for a large frame. Sales tax is 5%.

Answer 1

Answer:

The total amount that the consumer had to pay for both products was $ 94.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mal sold a large photo for $ 50 and a large frame for $ 40, and that the sales tax for these products is 5%, to determine the total amount that the consumer had to pay to purchase these products arises from the following calculation:

(50 + 40) x 1.05 = X

90 x 1.05 = X

94.5 = X

Therefore, the total amount that the consumer had to pay for both products was $ 94.50.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. Evaluate the expression: $4.50

2. Expand the expression: 2.5 + 2 = 4.5 (4.50)

3. Total tax is 4.50. yes, both the evaluating and expanding got me the same answer.

4. Expanded Expression

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  0.05(50 + 40) evaluated is 4.50

2. I broke apart 4.50 into different numbers and got 2.5 + 2

3. pretty self explanatory

4. again, pretty self explanatory
