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.
