At a car wash, Lily paid $11.75 for the wash, 8% sales tax on the price of the wash, and $2 for the tip.



Which statements are true?



Choose exactly two answers that are correct.



A.


The equation that represents the total price, w, of the car wash is w + 0.08w + 2 = 11.75.


B.


The equation that represents the total price, w, of the car wash is 11.75 + 0.08(11.75) + 2 = w.


C.


The total cost of the car wash is $9.03.


D.


The total cost of the car wash is $14.69.


~~~C and A?~~~

Answer 15

A is correct, but not C.
If Lily paid $11.75 for the car wash, plus two additional fees, how can it cost $9.03?
...assuming that Lily is not an extreme couponer ;)

Answer 16

Oh, but I added all of it and it came out as 13.83

How do I get $14.69?

Answer 17

11.75*1.08=12.69
12.69+2.00=$14.69

Answer 18

Oh, I see. One more question, how does 0.08 change into 1.08?

Answer 19

The car wash has a sales tax of 8%. Before tax, the price is 11.75.
If we want to find how much the tax costs, we can do a variety of things:
We can multiply 11.75*0.08=0.94
Then, we can add this to 11.75
0.94+11.75=12.69
We can also just multiply 11.75 by 1.08, or 108%, like I did previously
