Twice 7.99 plus 12.49. This total times 104.5% of the price (which is 100% of the price with an additional 4.5% tax) then subtract the $20 gift certificate.
[2(7.99) + 12.49](1.045) - 20
9.75115
Which is approximately $9.75
(or 9.76 if they decide to round up)

(7.99 * 2) + 12.49 = 28.47
4.5% = 4.5/100 = 45/1000 = 0.045
To find the total with the tax already added in,
add 100% to the 4.5% sales tax.
You get 104.5% = 104.5/100 = 1.045
28.47 * 1.045 = $29.75
Subtract the $20 from the gift certificate
and you get $9.75 left to be paid in cash.

Add 7.99+7.99+12.49
=28.47
Multiply 28.47 by 4.5%
=1.28
Add 1.28 to 28.47
=29.75
Subtract 20 from 29.75
=9.75
Your answer is $9.75
You may want to double check my numbers, but the steps are correct.

user-friendly, merely do the Distributive belongings, 3(x+4)-2(x+3) First you will would desire to do 3 x "x" and four so 3(x+4) will replace to (3x+12) And the two(x+3) will replace to (2x+6) Now you have (3x+12) - (2x+6) which will equivalent X=18 wish this helps!!

Add the cost of all the items. (this gives you the total of the items)
Multiply by 1.045 (this gives you the total plus tax)
subtract 20 (this gives you the answer)

7.99 x 2=15.98
12.49
-------------------------------
total before 4.5% tax= 28.47
28.47 x 4.5%=1.28115
28.47 + 1.28= 29.75 -20 for the certificate , so you would pay an extra $9.75 in cash
