Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off. The sales tax in her county is 6%. Let y represent the original price of the game. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game. And ok i will close a post when i am finished

Answer 9

ok so we need to have y=____, right?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

yes we do need a y

Answer 12

Let y represent the original price of a game.
Ella purchased a game that was on sale 12% off which means that the new price of the game is 88% of the original price.
follow me?

Answer 13

yes

Answer 14

\[y*0.88/100= 0.88y\]
Next, the sales tax in her county is 6%, which means that the the now price is 106% to the original price, so:
\[0.88y* 106= 0.88(1.06)y\]

when you solve it out, your y is going to be the 88% and the 6% so you have .88y and 0.06y
so y =− 0.88y +0.06y

you want to subtract the 12 percent from the original and that's the 88 and then you add the 6 percent sales tax to it so the answer is y =− 0.88y +0.06y


does this make any bit of sense or should i explain it differently?

Answer 15

No no i makes perfect sense to me.
