$24.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

The price of a video game is $32.99 before tax

discount = 20%

amount of discount

20/100*32.99

=0.2*32.99

=6.598

new price= 32.99-6.598

=$26.392

tax= 8%

amount of tax

8/100*26.392

=0.08*26.392

=$2.10

Total cost of the game

$26.392+$2.10= $24.28

$24.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

The price of a video game is $32.99 before tax

discount = 20%

amount of discount

20/100*32.99

=0.2*32.99

=6.598

new price= 32.99-6.598

=$26.392

tax= 8%

amount of tax

8/100*26.392

=0.08*26.392

=$2.10

Total cost of the game

$26.392+$2.10= $24.28

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
