Afurniture store is having a weekend sale and is offering a 20% discount on patio chairs and tables. the sales tax on furniture is 6.25%. using function composition, how can you represent the total amount, a, that you would need to pay for furniture that costs x dollars?

The price will be reduced by 20%, so will become 0.8x
The tax will increase the amount by 0.0625 times
Thus:
A = 0.8x + 0.0625x
A = 0.8625x

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!

The answer to your question is d 68%
