Answer:
(a)Tax = $78.40
(b)Delivery =$40
Step-by-step explanation:
A computer is advertised at $980 + tax + delivery.
(a) We want to determine 8% of $980
8%= [tex]\frac{8}{100}=0.08[/tex]
Therefore: 8% of $980 =0.08 X 980 =$78.40
The Tax on the Computer = $78.40
(b)The total price is $1098.40
Recall:
Total Price = $980 + tax + delivery
1098.40 = 980 + 78.4 + Delivery
1098.40 = 1058.40+ Delivery
Subtract 1058.40 from both sides
1098.40- 1058.40= 1058.40-1058.40+ Delivery
Charge for Delivery =$40
