<h3>
Answer: 4 dollars and 17 cents</h3><h3>This is the same as saying $4.17</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
15+35.50 = 50.50 dollars is the total before tax is applied.
Take 8.25% of this to get
0.0825*50.50 = 4.16625
and this rounds to 4.17, which is the amount of sales tax charged.
$4.17 = 4 dollars + 17 cents
---------
Extra info:
The grand total will be 50.50+4.17 = 54.67
Another way to get the grand total is to multiply 1.0825 by the previous subtotal (50.50) getting 50.50*1.0825 = 54.66625 and that rounds to 54.67
The multiplier 1.0825 effectively means "increase by 8.25%"
Answer:
Leila is buying a dinosaur model. The price of the model is xxx dollars, and she also has to pay a 7\%7%7, percent tax.
Which of the following expressions could represent how much Leila pays in total for the model?
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price of the dinosaur model is "x" dollars
On top of that, the sales tax is 7% of the original price
Hence,
The total price would be the original amount PLUS the taxed amount
Original Amount = x
Taxed Amount = 7% of x
That is, 7% in decimal multiplied with "x".
7/100 = 0.07
0.07 * x = 0.07x
Total amount = x + 0.07x = 1.07x
The expression for total amount is 1.07x
