Question

A store is advertising a sale with 15% off all prices in the store. Sales tax is 8%. Which

equation will correctly determine the total cost, C of buying an item with an original price
of p, after the discount and sales tax are included? Select all that apply.
A C = 1.08p - 0.15p
B C = 1.15p + 0.08p
C C = 1.08(0.85p)
D C = 0.85p + (0.08)0.85p
E C = p - 0.15p + 0.08p

Answer 1

A C = 1.08p - 0.15p

B C = 1.15p + 0.08p

C C = 1.08(0.85p)

D C = 0.85p + (0.08)0.85p

E C = p - 0.15p + 0.08p

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation will correctly determine the total cost, C of buying an item with an original price

of p, after the discount and sales tax are included? Select all that apply.
