Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off. The sales tax in her county is 6%. Let y represent the original price of the game. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game. A y − 0.12y

B 0.06(0.88y)

C 1.06(0.88y)

D y − 0.88y + 0.06y

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is

1.06(0.88 y) ⇒ (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the problem

∵ Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off

→ That means the new price will (100% - 12%) of the initial price

∵ y represented the initial price of the game

→ Multiply y by (100% - 12%) to get the new price

∴ The new price = y (100% - 12%)

∴ The new price = y (88%)

→ Change 88% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The new price = y ()

∴ The new price = 0.88 y

∵ The sales tax in her county is 6%

→ That means the final cost will be (100% + 6%) of 0.88 y

∴ The final cost = (100% + 6%) × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 106% × (0.88 y)

→ Change 106% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The final cost = × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 1.06(0.88 y)

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is 1.06(0.88 y)

i you goofed up when writing this, because hnot is not a word minusf is not either. i cannot answer   because of that.
