Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items
Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
Answer:
-4 (5v -3v -6) -9v (use the distributive property)
-20v +12v +24 -9v (combine all like terms)
-17v +24
15y + 31 = 61
15y = 61 - 31
15y = 30
y = 30 ÷ 15
<u>y = 2</u>
Answer:the answer is
Step-by-step explanation:
First convert 7 1/2 to an improper fraction
15/2 ÷ 3/4
Division of fractions hold the first fraction replaces ÷ with x then flip the second fraction
15/2 x 4/3
Multiply the tops 15x4 =60
Over the bottoms multiplied together 2x3=6
60/6=10

Since A is (-7,-4) and C is (7,3) for the x value from a to c is 14 for the y value from a to c is 7
Do 14 x 2/7 which is 4
Do 7 x 2/7 which is 2
then add (-7+4,-4+2) which is (-3,-2)
