Answer:

75.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Most sales taxes work by not being calculated until cash in some form changes hands. So you take the discount first and then you add the sales tax on the new amount.

Take the discount first

Original cost = 79.74

Discount amount = 79.74 * 12% = 79.74 * 12/100 = 9.57

New price = 79.74 - 9.57 = 70.17

Now you are ready to add on the sales tax

70.17 * 7.25/100 = 5.09

The total is 70.17 + 5.09 = 75.26

What are the domain and range of the function f(x)=-log(5-x)+9?
Setler [38]

Answer:

Domain: x < 5

Range: all numbers, -∞, ∞

This is because the problem will be able to be solved with multiple solutions as long as there are no specific values assigned to <em>x. </em>The problem will have a solution from a range of negative infinity to infinity, meaning every number or solution you can think of.
