18.You've just placed an order for a set of tools for a new employee. The cost of the tools is $185.95. If you must pay 4% sales tax on the purchase, how much will you pay for the tools? (Round your answer to two decimal places. Note: This question requires two calculations.)

Amount pay for tool = $193.39 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of the tools = $185.95

Sales tax = 4%

Find:

Amount pay for tool

Computation:

Amount pay for tool = Cost of the tools[1+Sales tax]

Amount pay for tool = $185.95[1+4%]

Amount pay for tool = $193.39 (Approx)

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation
