Question

With a certain medical insurance​ policy, the customer must first pay an annual ​$350 ​deductible, and then the policy covers 70​% of the cost of​ x-rays. The first insurance claims for a specific year submitted by a person are for two​ x-rays. The first​ x-ray cost ​$​640, and the second​ x-ray cost ​$900. How​ much, in​ total, will he need to pay for these​ x-rays?

Answer 1

$707

Explanation:

The total cost was $1540 before insurance.

$350 must be paid in full, and the other $1190 will have 30% paid by the customer.

So, the cost to the customer is 350+0.3(1190)=$707.
