In a store a sweater costs $27.99 plus 6% sales tax. the same sweater in a catalog is $20.99 plus 6% sales tax and $4.00 for shipping and handling. how much more or less is the sweater in the store verses the catalog? a. $7.42 more in the store c. $3.42 less in the store b. $3.42 more in the store d. $7.42 less in the store

Option b. $3.42 more in store.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a sweater in a store = $27.99 + 6% (sales tax)

The cost of a sweater in a store = 27.99 + (6% of 27.99)

                                                     = 27.99 + (0.06 × 27.99)

                                                     = 27.99 + 1.6794

                                                     = $29.6694 ≈ $29.67

Price of the same sweater in a catalog = $20.99 + 6% (sales tax) + $4.00 (shipping)

                                                    = 20.99 + (6% × 20.99) + 4.00

                                                    = 24.99 + (0.06 × 20.99)

                                                    = 24.99 + 1.2594

                                                    = 26.2494 ≈ $26.25

Difference between the price = 29.67 - 26.25 = $3.42 more in store.

Option b. $3.42 more in store.

d

step-by-step explanation:

there are 70 more legs than eyes at the dog show (196 – 126 = 70). dogs have two more legs than eyes, and humans have the same number of legs as eyes. thus 70 is twice the number of dogs at the show, so the number of dogs is half of 70, which is 35. to get the number of humans, subtract 35 from 63: 63 – 35 = 28.
