This is my last question. I need help on this plz. ASAP!! This is 15 points!! A store bought a rug at a cost of $83.06 and marked it up 150%. Matthew bought it and paid 2% sales tax. What was his total cost?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$211.80

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the price of the rug.

150%/100=1.50+1=2.5

83.06*2.50=207.65

Then, find the price of the sales tax

2%/100=0.02

207.65*0.02=4.153

Then add the sales tax onto the price of the rug.

207.65+4.153=211.803 or 211.80
