Let's do this one together. So, we have the initial cost, $1080, and a tax of 8% (also written as .08). What did we do last time to find the total cost?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite. What exactly "is" sales tax?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Think about it for a second. What did I do last time to get the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just give me the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Come now, it's not terribly difficult. I'll give you the equation, then you can put in the numbers and get the answer. The equation should be: \[1050 \times .08 + 1050 = ?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Remember PEMDAS, so do the multiplication first, then addition.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its D!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, you forgot to multiply 1050 by .08, then add that number to the initial value, 1050.

And by now, you've guessed all the wrong answers, so the only right one is the one you haven't guessed.
