3 cases of fresh apples that cost $21.95 per case with 20% off and a 7.5% sales tax
3 cases of fresh apples that cost $21.95 per case with 20% off and a 7.5% sales tax Figure out the total cost before the discount: Total Cost before discount = Cases * Price per case Total Cost before discount = 3 cases * $21.95 per case Total Cost before discount = $65.85 Now, find the discounted value of the apples: Discounted Apple Price = Total Cost before discount * (1 - discount percent) Discounted ApplesPrice = $65.85 * (1 - 0.2) <-- 20% is the same as 0.2 Discounted ApplesPrice = $65.85 * 0.8 Discounted ApplesPrice = $52.68 Now, apply the sales tax to this discounted value to get the total bill: Total Bill = Discounted Apple Price * (1 + tax rate) Total Bill = $52.68 * (1 + .075) <-- 7.5% = 0.075 Total Bill = $52.68 * 1.075 Total Bill = [B]$56.63[/B]

A bakery sells 5800 muffins in 2010. The bakery sells 7420 muffins in 2015. Write a linear model that represents the number y of muffins that the bakery sells x years after 2010. Find the number of muffins sold after 2010 through 2015: 7,420 - 5,800 = 1,620 Now, since the problem states a linear sales model, we need to determine the sales per year: 1,620 muffins sold since 2010 / 5 years = 324 muffins per year. Build our linear model: [B]y = 5,800 + 324x [/B] Reading this out loud, we start with 5,800 muffins at the end of 2010, and we add 324 more muffins for each year after 2010.

A school spent $150 on advertising for a breakfast fundraiser. Each plate of food was sold for $8.00 but cost the school $2.00 to prepare. After all expenses were paid, the school raised $2,400 at the fundraiser. Which equation can be used to find x, the number of plates that were sold?

Savannah is a salesperson who sells computers at an electronics store. She makes a base pay of $90 each day and is also paid a commission for each sale she makes. One day, Savannah sold 4 computers and was paid a total of $100. Write an equation for the function P(x), representing Savannah's total pay on a day on which she sells x computers. If base pay is $90 per day, then the total commission Savannah made for selling 4 computers is: Commission = Total Pay - Base Pay Commission = 100 - 90 Commission = $10 Assuming the commission for each computer is equal, we need to find the commission per computer: Commission per computer = Total Commission / Number of Computers Sold Commission per computer = 10/4 Commission per computer = $2.50 Now, we build the Total pay function P(x): Total Pay = Base Pay + Commission * Number of Computers sold [B]P(x) = 90 + 2.5x[/B]
