Acd usually sells for $15.00. if the cd is 10% off, and sales tax is 5%, what is the total price of the cd, including tax?

The total price of the CD is $14.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

We can compute additive or subtractive percentages by using these formulas. If we have a number X and want to increase it by Y%, then the increase is xY/100. Thus the new value for the number is x+xY/100 or equivalently

If we want to decrease by Z%, the new value is

The regular price for a CD is X=$15. The CD is Z=10% off, so the sale price is

But we have to add the tax of Y=5%, so the final value is

The total price of the CD is $14.18

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b

#12 the answer is the third option
