Since sales tax goes after the discount, it would be 3 dollars and 20 cents. Taking 50 dollars and 20% is discounted (50*.2), which would be 10 dollars taken off. It would be 40 dollars shoes and then you apply sales tax by multiplying 40 by .08, giving you the amount of tax paid.
Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!

Answer:
<em>Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years</em>
<em>The fathers present age is 35 years</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the present age of daughter be x
Let the present age of father be y
5 years ago;
Daughter's age = x - 5
Fathers age = y - 5
If the present age of father is thrice as old as the age of daughter 5 years ago, then;
y - 5 = 3(x-5)
y - 5 = 3x-15
y = 3x - 10 .... 1
In 5 years time;
Daughters age = x + 5
Fathers age = y + 5
If the age of father will be twice the age of his daughter in 5 years time then;
y+5 = 2(x+5)
y+5 = 2x + 10
y = 2x + 5 .....2
Equate 1 and 2;
3x - 10 = 2x + 5
3x - 2x = 5 + 10
x = 15
Since y = 2x + 5
y = 2(15) + 5
y = 35
<em>Hence the daughter's present age is 15 years</em>
<em>The fathers present age is 35 years</em>
<em></em>
