Kitchen goods are on sale for 30% off their regular price. In addition,
all goods are subject to 6% tax and a $6 shipping charge. If c
represents the original cost of a blender, its total cost can be found
using the expression 1.06(0.7c) + 6. Find the total cost of a blender
that originally cost $65.

Respuesta :

The original cost of a blender is $65.
Its total cost is $54.23

Answer:

$54.23.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c  represent the original cost of a blender.

We have been an expression [tex]1.06(0.7c)+6[/tex], which represents the cost of an kitchen item after 30% off sale plus 6% tax and $6 shipping charges.

To find the total cost of a blender  that originally cost $65, we will substitute [tex]c=65[/tex] in our given expression.

[tex]1.06(0.7\times 65)+6[/tex]

[tex]1.06(45.5)+6[/tex]

[tex]48.23+6[/tex]

[tex]54.23[/tex]

Therefore, the total cost of the blender would be $54.23.
