Answer:
$495.56
Step-by-step explanation:
Tax increases the price paid for a good or service. So, the total price paid for the goods would increase by the total amount of tax
Sum of the three taxes = 6% + 1.5% + 0.5% = 8%
Total cost of items purchased = $436 + $22.85 = $485.85
Total purchase price = Total cost of items purchased x (1 + total tax)
$485.85 x (1.08) = $495.56
D) 286.7 because the number is rounded to your nearest tenth
Get the distance between two acres.
2.5 - 2.4 = 0.1
Divide the diffence by 2
0.1 / 2 = 0.05 - Halfway between them.
Therefore, 0.05 must be taken from 2.5 acres. it must be added to 2.4 acres to get the exact area of the park.
2.5 - 0.05 = 2.45
2.4 + 0.04 = 2.45 acres
OR
Simply get the average of the two to get the area since it is exactly halfway between the two acres of land.
2.5 + 2.4 = 2.9 / 2 = 2.45 acres
Answer: Choice C and Choice D
========================================================
Explanation:
- Choice A doesn't work because it the $1 should be $7 instead.
- Choice B doesn't work because it should be Elena spending $7 total on 3 notebooks and a $1 pen. The x is the amount per notebook.
- Choice C does work. If x is the number of grapes Noah gives each friend, then 3x is the total amount Noah gives over. Then 3x+1 is the number of grapes total. That +1 at the end is the grape Noah eats. We end up with 3x+1 = 7 because Noah starts off with 7 grapes.
- Choice D works also. The x is the number of hours for math, science and history each. So 3x is the combined time of those three classes. Add on 1 to get 3x+1 to represent all 7 hours, ie 3x+1 = 7.
- Choice E does not work. If it was her spending $7 on 3 markers and a $1 pen, then it would work.
