(1 point)the nearest whole number.
To find the total price of the car with upgrades, we first need to find the price of the car plus the upgrades.
Car price: $21,345
Upgrades cost: $2,500
Total price of car with upgrades: $21,345 + $2,500 = $23,845
Next, to find the sales tax, we need to multiply the total price by the tax rate of 7%.
Sales tax: $23,845 x 0.07 = $1,668.15
Finally, to find the total loan amount, we add the total price of the car with upgrades to the sales tax.
Total loan amount: $23,845 + $1,668.15 = $25,513.15
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the total loan amount would be $25,513.
B. How do you know find 7% of your total in part A? Show your proportion and work. Explain your process.(1 point)
To find 7% of the total price in part A, we can set up a proportion.
Let x represent the total price, which is $23,845.
7% of x = Sales tax
We can set up the proportion as:
7/100 = Sales tax/x
Cross-multiplying, we get:
7x = 100(Sales tax)
We know that the sales tax is $1,668.15.
Plugging in the values, we have:
7x = 100(1,668.15)
Now we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 7:
x = (100(1,668.15))/7
x = 100 x 238.30
x = 23,830
Therefore, 7% of $23,845 (total price in part A) is $1,668.15.
C. What will be the total of Safia's loan with upgrades INCLUDING sales tax? Show your work.(1 point)

Hunter was paid $72 dollars for 5 hours of raking leaves and mowing the lawn. What was his hourly pay? Round to the nearest dollar.(1 point) Responses $10.00 per hour $10.00 per hour $12.00 per hour $12.00 per hour $14.00 per hour $14.00 per hour $15.00 per hour
To find Hunter's hourly pay, we need to divide the total amount he was paid by the number of hours he worked.
Paid amount: $72

Hourly pay = Paid amount / Number of hours worked
Hourly pay = $72 / 5
Hourly pay ≈ $14.40
Rounded to the nearest dollar, Hunter's hourly pay is $14 per hour.
