Electricity wasn't the only energy cost. also look at logs for fire. being that they were bought for fire it is using heat energy. there for making the total energy cost the highest. only look at what is energy cost toward the overall bill.
This is how I would do it, hope this helps!
Answer:
xx(0.65) + xx(0.08)
Step-by-step explanation:
First step is to find the discounted price. Finding 35% less than the original xx is the same as finding 65% of it, so we multiply by 0.65. Once this is completed we need to find 8% more than that. So we add 8% of xx, which is the same as multiplying by 0.08. Hope this helps :)
