please show all workings, Dujuan is buying a pair of running shoes that cost $80.The sale tax rate in his state is 7.5%.How much will he pay at the cash register?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

80(.075)=6 80+6=$86

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please are you sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. Does it make sense? 7.5% is =.075 in decimal form so if you multiply that buy the total cost you get $6 worth of sales tax. Thus, a total price of $86.

I have a feeling some people are using this site to get answers for homework.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i think so

That's why I try and guide someone through problems. This one was too easy so I first did it, then explained. I'm lazy so the harder problems I don't like to do, so I guide.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks any way
