The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
$43.20
Explanation:
The formula we have is
c = p(1+r), where c is the total cost, p is the price of the item before tax, and r is the tax rate written as a decimal. This formula comes from the fact that adding a percent tax to the cost of an item takes 100% of the price and adds r% to it; this is why we multiply the price by (1+r).
Since our tax rate is 8%, r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08. The price of the item is $40. Using this information, we have:
c = 40(1.08) = $43.20
No because 3 x 4 = 12 and 8 x 4 ≠ 24
Answer:
uh where's the rest of the question?
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5m - 4/5 - 3/5m...combine like terms
-1/5m - 4/5
100+30=130
100+40=140
online price is 130% or original
superstore price is 140% or original
the difference bewteen them is 140-130=10% of the original price
A. 1.3 times 160=208=online
1.4 times 160=224=superstore
B. difference is 224-208=16=10% of 160
it is 10% of the original price
A. online=$208
superstore=$224
B. $16, this is 10% of the original price
