Answer: $106.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the bond price is $100.75
With a 6% brokerage fee
Find the total cost to the nearest cent
First, we calculate the 6% brokerage fee= 6/100 × 100.75
= 0.06 x 100.75
= 6.045
Total cost therefore is the sum of brokerage fee and the cost of bond
= $6.045 + $100.75
= $106.795
To the nearest cent = $106.8
The mistake that Karen made was that in order to get the 8 to switch sides, it should have been subtracted rather than added. This is because it is positive on the left side and therefore must be negative when we switch it to the right side. A proper version of this problem would be below.
y + 8 = 15
y = 15 - 8
y = 7
