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

Find the <br> x-intercept and <br> y-intercept of the line.
vova2212 [387]
<h3><u>The x intercept is at (-7, 0).</u></h3><h3><u>The y intercept is at (0, 1).</u></h3>

To find both the x and the y intercept, we need to solve one at a time.

For the x intercept, we need to make the value of y equal to 0, and solve for x.

-x + 7y = 7

-x + 7(0) = 7

-x = 7

Multiply both sides by -1.

x = -7

The x intercept is -7.


Now for the y intercept.

-(0) + 7y = 7

7y = 7

Divide both sides by 1.

y = 1

The y intercept is at 0, 1.
