Conor is going to the amusement park and he wants to buy tickets, there is a 15% tax for each ticket, conor buys a ticket to see a movie write two impressions in terms of T showing his total cost
Let's assume the cost of the ticket to see a movie is T.
1. The 15% tax on the ticket can be expressed as 0.15T.
Therefore, the total cost of the ticket with tax can be written as T + 0.15T = 1.15T.
2. Another way to express the total cost of the ticket with tax is to multiply the cost of the ticket (T) by 1 + 0.15.
Therefore, the total cost of the ticket with tax can be written as T(1 + 0.15) = 1.15T.
So, both expressions in terms of T will give us Conor's total cost of the ticket with tax.
Choose a value for T greater than twelve and less than thirteen. use one of the expressions you wrote to find conors total cost, rounded to the nearest penny, show your work.
Let's choose T = 12.50.
Using the expression 1.15T, we can find Conor's total cost with tax:
Total cost = 1.15T = 1.15(12.50) = 14.375
Rounding to the nearest penny, Conor's total cost with tax is $14.38.
Therefore, Conor's total cost, rounded to the nearest penny, is $14.38.
suppose that conners total cost is greater than 17.50 and less than 20 what could be a value of T to make that possible?
To find a value of T that would make Conor's total cost fall within the range of greater than 17.50 and less than 20, we can use the expression 1.15T.
Let's assume T = 15.
Total cost = 1.15T = 1.15(15) = 17.25
The calculated total cost is 17.25, which falls within the given range.
Therefore, a possible value of T that would make Conor's total cost greater than 17.50 and less than 20 is T = 15.
