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

N- 0.125= 4.1 what is N?
guajiro [1.7K]
Well, lets add 0.125 to 4.1.

We would get 4.225.

Finally we can check.

4.225-0.125= 4.1

How did we get it? What i did is I did the opposite. Instead of subtracting 0.125 I added it.

N= 4.225

In a paint factory, an old conveyer line has filled 50 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 2 barrels per minute.
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

60 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

y = # of barrels; x = minutes

worker: y = 12x

old line: y = 2x + 50

12x = 2x + 50

10x = 50

x = 5

y = 12(5) = 60

y = 2(5) + 50 = 60

60 barrels
