Question

Winonna and Takoda are shopping for a present for their mother. The chart shows several possible presents. There is no sales tax in the state where they live. 2a. Write an expression in terms of d to show how much Winonna and Takoda would pay in total if they brought their mother the set of power tools. (2 points) Responses d + (d x 0.15) d + (d x 0.15) d + 0.15 d + 0.15 d - 0.15 d - 0.15 d - (d x 0.15) d - (d x 0.15)

Answer 1

To find the total cost if Winonna and Takoda buy their mother the set of power tools, you would typically calculate the cost of the item plus any applicable sales tax. However, since you mentioned that there is no sales tax in the state where they live, the expression would simply be the cost of the power tools itself represented as \( d \).

In the options provided:

• \( d + (d \times 0.15) \) would represent the cost plus 15% sales tax.
• The expressions with other combinations involving addition and subtraction with \( 0.15 \) or \( d \) appear to imply a tax or discounts, but since there's no tax, they would not capture the intended situation correctly.

Given that there is no sales tax, the total amount Winonna and Takoda would pay for the power tools is simply:

\[ d \]

Thus, none of the provided responses accurately represent the cost based on the information given that there is no sales tax. If the task is to use the correct term, only \( d \) accurately represents the cost without additional modifiers like tax.

Answer 2

whats the answer

Answer 3

The correct expression representing how much Winonna and Takoda would pay in total for the set of power tools, with no sales tax applied, is simply:

\[ d \]

If the options provided don't include just \( d \), then none of those options correctly answer the question based on the fact that there's no sales tax.

Answer 4

is it
d + (d x 0.15)
d+ 0.15
d - 0.15
d - (d x 0.15)

Answer 5

Given that there is no sales tax, the total price they would pay for the set of power tools should just be represented by the cost \( d \).

From the options you provided:

1. \(d + (d \times 0.15)\) (this represents the cost plus 15% tax)
2. \(d + 0.15\) (this does not represent the cost correctly since it adds a flat amount, not related to the item cost)
3. \(d - 0.15\) (this incorrectly subtracts an arbitrary value)
4. \(d - (d \times 0.15)\) (this incorrectly subtracts 15% from the cost)

None of the provided options correctly express how much they would pay without sales tax because the correct answer is simply \(d\). However, if you need to select an alternative that may refer to any kind of calculation including a tax which is not applicable, the first one (\(d + (d \times 0.15)\)) is technically the only one that indicates a calculation involving the cost, but it is not correct for the situation at hand.

In conclusion, the answer is simply \( d \), and none of the options you listed accurately represent the total cost of the power tools. If forced to choose, \(d + (d \times 0.15)\) is the closest in format but not the correct answer in this no-tax situation.
