John buys two ties that each cost $19.99 he also buys a pair of dress pants that were originally $64 but a discounted by 30% more over he has a coupon for $10 off a purchase of $50 or more purchase finally sales tax is 6% in his state how much did John pay for the ties and pants

Cost of ties and pants = $52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of ties = $19.99

cost of dress pants = $64, discountted by 30%

discount on dress pants = 30% of 64 = 0.3 × 64 = $19.2

∴ Discounted price of dress pants = 64 - 19.2 = $44.8

Total cost of ties and dress pants = 19.99 + 44.8 = $64.79

Now, let us apply the coupon

coupon = $10 off every purchase of $50 or more

Purchase amount = $64.79 ;  therefore coupon applies.

Applying coupon

Purchase amount = 64.79 - 10 = $54.79

sale tax = 6% or purchase price

sale tax = 6% × 54.79

sale tax = 0.06 × 54.79 = $3.29

∴ Final cost of ties and dress pants = 54.79 - 3.29 = $52.5

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24
