Answer:

Very handy question to know the answer to. I know of no place on the planet that does not have a tax of some sort.

The tax only applies when money changes hands. It does not apply to any discounts

So if you take the deal, the cost is

Cost of 2 pizzas = normal price - the discount.

Cost of 2 pizzas = 2*10.50 - 2.00

Cost of 2 pizzas = 21 - 2

Cost of 2 pizzas = 19.00 dollars.

Not you add on the sales tax. You can do this one of two ways, the long way or the short way.

Long way

Find the sales tax

Tax = % * cost

Tax = (7.5/100) * 19

Tax = 1.425 don't round yet.

Total Cost = purchase + tax

Total Cost = 19.00 + 1.425 = 20.425 Now round. This is a real problem. It depends on what you have been told to do about rounding when 5 is the last digit. I round up. So my answer would be 20.43 <<<<< Answer.

Short Way

Cost = (Price - discount)*(1 + %/100)

Cost = (21 - 2)*(1+ 7.5/100)

Cost = 19 * (1.075)

Cost = 20.425 = 20.43

What is the value of the expression 10 + (fraction 1 over 2)4 ⋅ 48?
EleoNora [17]
 Equation arrangement: 10 + [1/2]^4. 48
[1/2]^4 = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/16
10 + [1/16] * 48
According to the law of BODMAS, we have to carry out multiplication operations before we carry out addition operations, therefore, we now have.
[1/16] * 48 = 3
Then, 10 +3 =13.
Thus, the final answer is 13.
