The total cost of the skate board is $74.61.
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given, Luis wants to buy a skateboard that usually sells for $79.99. all merchandise is discounted by 12%. luis has to pay a state sales tax of 6.75%.
We need to find what is the total cost of the skateboard.
Final cost is nothing but original amount subtracted by discount and added with tax.
final cost = original cost – discount + sales tax
Original cost = $79.99
Discount = 12% of original cost

discount is $9.6 approximately
Sales tax = 6% of cost after discounting

Sales tax is $4.22 approximately
Now, final cost = 79.99 – 9.6 + 4.22
= 84.21 - 9.6
= 74.61
Hence, the total cost of the skate board is $74.61
Answer:
5 rides
Step-by-step explanation: Multiply the number of kiddie rides his sister will go on (5) by the amount of tickets it costs each (3). subract that from 40 (the initial amount of tickets). then divide that by 5 (amount of tickets for 1 thrill ride)
You use the cricle fourmla (πr sqaure). and you will get 7.065
Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.
So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.
All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4
So subtract 74.4 and get
173.6
